Re: [Newbe]: Install Additional Software on the Z

Hi Lukas:

I usually download the .ipk files and install from local media.  
That way I still have the package if I need to reinstall it later.

A good sanity test for you would be to install something that came with your 
unit.  I think there are a few .ipk files on the CD ROM that accompanied your 
unit - like a Terminal emulator.  Try copying one of those to a compact flash 
or SD card and installing from there.

Let us know what happens.

   Regards,
	- Darrell
