When I go penguinbait.com and click install-tools-N810e.deb the file doesn't run or install -- it opens and I can read some of the text. Am I doing something stupid?

Also, I took your advice, right clicked and saved the file to external memory. I then tried to install from file using Application Manager and got the error "Unable to install..."

2) Only for N800 with ONE card in or N810 with NO card
3) check swap file, have to be OFF.
some step to step instructions here, http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ad.php?t=22155
Hope this helps,

and post your system info. I think you are doing N810 and tried to install MMC boot into internal SD, right?
I do not know which one you are using, here are the byte size on a winPC
install-tools.deb 3,743
install-tools.ad.tar 5,774
install-tools-N810e.deb 3,744
And sure, you have only ONE EXTERNAL.txt or INTERNAL.txt on your system, right? I think this is not important, though
Edit: according to PB's instruction, ONLY ONE .txt is important. so throw away the other one you are NOT using.

Thanks for the debs. I understand the OS2008 Feature upgrade requires a modified initfs flasher for the boot menu. (Post 20, bottom of first page) Do I understand this correctly and can you notify us when you have updated the debs?
I tried fanoush's instructions, but upon #tar zxvf initfs_flasher.tgz, I got Tar: invalid gzip magic.
[Edit:] It seems the penguinbait debs have either been updated or worked fine all along. Another report of them working was enough for me to download and try again.
