Well, I can do nothing about the permison denied message. You simply cannot run anything from card by default. I guess at least I can implement check for those who (for some mysterious reason) disable 'noexec' flag on FAT formatted MMC cards or run it via sh. I will also add it to README for those who bother to read it. Also empty file called DO_NOT_RUN_ME_FROM_MMC may be a good idea and could warn people when they extract the archive.

There is no way initfs_flasher will run correctly from FAT formatted card even if you disable the default 'noexec' mount flag. It needs proper unix filesystem for many reasons.
