What Should I Be Seeing For Robbrown Firmware?

[NILL]

I'm trying to use the RobBrown firmware updated and I'm not sure if it's working. I've only used the flashtest so far. When I do I get a blank screen. Is this right? If so, how long does it take to test?

You should see a blank screen for about 3 seconds, then a messed-up screen for maybe 2 seconds, and then some test telling you about the progress of the flash update.

Getting a blank screen probably means that program failed to load. Did you put the files in the root of your SD card? If so, then maybe try copying them to the card again.

OK thanks. The read me didn't say anything about needing to be on the root.

i don't understand why people need things in the root directory anyway. relative paths work just fine on the gp2x.
