Bootldr is available for Simpad

Hi Chris

Your information is wrong.
I have corrected the issue with the second flash.
Bootldr is now an alternative.

I am wondering why many requested the hh.org bootldr and
when I fixed it nobody was interested anymore.

SO PLEASE START USING IT!
I did not spend time on it for nothing , did I?

Regards
Walter
