Ramdisk Rescue 0.6.4 released

Overview:
=========
Ramdisk Rescue allows Linux to be installed to a flash
card (SD, MMC or CF) using a handheld, without requiring
a separate computer to format the card. In other words,
Ramdisk Rescue is an automated installer for Familiar
Linux, which works just like the installer for your
desktop distribution. Maintenance and kernel testing are
also possible, including the ability to diagnose and
filesystem problems, check board/device versions and test
audio+LED support.

Device Support:
===============
Ramdisk Rescue currently supports h2200, h4000 and hx4700
handheld devices, but aims to support any handheld
supported by Familiar (or is under development), and is
written with device independence in mind.


News:
=====
As with the previous release, a vast number of changes
have been made (over 450 commits made to the SVN
repository).

Ramdisk Rescue is now hosted at SourceForge utilising
both SVN services and file release hosting.
   http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/ramdisk-rescue/
   http://sourceforge.net/projects/ramdisk-rescue/

The latest development revision is automatically generated
each day at 3AM AEDT (GMT+10/11) if there are any changes
made to the SVN repository (update system in beta).

Please see the wiki for the latest version and information:
