hi Nick's Dad
I partitioned an SD card, (2 fat32 partitions) had the roebeet "Polaris file" on it to root my pandigital 9 novel, then after successfully flashing got link2sd and terminal emulator from the market - followed your programming instructions - when the device rebooted, it successfully read the SD card (no damaged card) but I noticed that the side buttons (arrows, home, menu) no longer work while the SD is in the slot - the Link2SD program displays all apps and offers to link non-system apps (angry birds) to the SD card but then I get an error message - "su:access granted, courtesy of www.madicandroidapps.com mkdir failed for /data/sdext2/data I/O error"

so somehow it is still not mounted... any ideas?

halle-friggin-leujah - third time around it seems to have worked - 3rd time I made sure the SD was blank (previously had the polaris dat and other files on it) - or maybe I just missed a space somewhere... anyway, thanks

A huge thank you to all of you ladies and gentlemen. I got link2sd working and a root rom this thing has trully come into it's own in the last month.

plodding right along, on to graphics performance... does anyone have ideas about graphics driver updates so that some of these arcade game apps will run instead of showing white squares instead of graphics - again, this is a rooted pandigital 9 running eclair
thanks

Since you all have been so clever so far, any ideas for improving graphic performance on a rooted pandigital 9 running eclair? Most of the arcade game apps for my daughter (e.g. angry birds) show white squares instead of graphics. Any driver updates possible?

thanks again for everything.

Thank you very much NicksDad, the instructions were easy to copy & paste into adb shell.

When I run the install-recovery.sh script manually it works perfectly with Link2SD, but I'm having a problem with it auto-mounting on boot.
I'm guessing it's because when the device powers off, the SD card needs to be reinserted so android can "prepare" and mount it. I'm curious how you're able to get that script to mount automatically to the SD card on boot, even though the SD card needs to be manually inserted after every restart?

edit: Got it working using a different SD card. Even though it didn't say it was damaged, for some reason it needed to be manually mounted, with this other SD card it mounts automatically on boot.

All instructions work well have market and link2sd running smoothly. You want youtube type app download from market or install videohub through sd card pick mp4 high quality streams videos smoothly amazing no buffer pauses at all actually its a better apk than youtube dont forget to pick mp4 high quality after you search for video. with all these mods and apk this little ereader is more tolerable and FYI to run games that do load up smoother try lowering graphics in settings of game. GL to all patience is a virtue. Follow instructions to the tee it will work.

So I was getting the damaged SD card message. I formatted both SD partitions as FAT and then it worked after hours of trying to figure out what was wrong. Mine no likey FAT32

Works great Thank You All!

I also must thank the developer for this. It has transformed my Novel into something useful

One thing I can't seem to figure out is how to calibrate the screen. Everything I see tells me to go to Settings, then to Calibrate, but that was with the stock firmware and I can't seem to find how to do it with this firmware

Some help would be greatly appreciated
