Create a folder "roadmaps" on your SD-Card and unzip usdir.rdm.tar.gz and bndSB.tar.gz from http://roadmap.digitalomaha.net/maps/ into it. I /think/ only the usdir is needed, but try both. You should now have a folder "SB" inside the roadmaps folder as well as a file usdir.drm directly in the roadmaps folder.

Thanks for that. I was having the same problem & this at least got roadmap 1.1.0j-6 running for me. My frustration comes from roadmap not showing any map data. So I guess I have to use getmaps to download it

. I open getmaps & it can get my gps fix ok (approximately so you guys can't accurately target me with your orbitting death lasers

, lat 50, long -98), I want to save the map data to my internal card so I point it to /media/mmc2/roadmaps. I then select Overwrite Existing Maps & hit Get OSM Maps (still confused about how to get Tiger Maps instead). It then fires up the wget command, which I copied to a terminal & modded slightly to test with the results below:

Code:

+ /usr/bin/wget --verbose --user-agent=RoadMap/1.1.0j -O test.out http://www.symbianos.org/~adam/osmgetbmap/osmgetbmap.php?tile=742303&ts=21&have=15
--10:23:05--  http://www.symbianos.org/~adam/osmgetbmap/osmgetbmap.php?tile=742303&ts=21&have=15
           => `test.out'
Resolving www.symbianos.org... 212.13.202.39

Retrying.

This is all I've EVER gotten from any version of roadmap I've tried so far. I'd love to try the program, but it seems the map server is flunked? At least for me? Suggestions _very_ welcome. TX
