It begins to process the update, then finds the memory card, only to give me an error message that says the memory card is formatted incorrectly or corrupted.

It is a brand new memory card and I formatted it as well as used other cards, same results.

Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? The only thing I assume is that I have the nokia turned on normally when doing this process. What is boot to flash on penguinbait's instructions (http://tablethacker.com/wp/?p=151&lang=en-us) and how do I do that?

Thanks much.
leave your card in, run install-tools
reboot
did a bootmenu show up?
if no
repeat process untl it does
done


If you boot and see a small splash about boot from menu and then continues booting from flash, look at the post prior to yours.

FYI when you boot the tablet normally it boots to flash by default
