From Stock Z2 to Fully Flashed with Audio, Fluxbox, Mouse, Aliosa27’s Latest Userland

Here is a video Mark and I made of the complete flashing and installation process, and a tour of the new userland features.

* Your zipit z2
* A linux computer with an internet connection (to download the packages below) and gparted installed
* A microSD card

Check it out, this guy has HULU running, DOSBox, even Debian. This is stupid cool fun for $50, I might just have to try this myself.
