Greetings, Sound as you said is currently not supported. Initrd is not required for 2.6 kernels (on 2.4 it was needed to activate CF/PCMCIA slot), so just point to your root partition inside params.txt (and leave the initrd line blank). Irda is most likely due to a config miss on my part.Loadkeys should work fine (atleast it does for me). Touchscreen is a known error, something in the opie settings that creates it (as X works just fine). Thx for feedback, always appreciated.
