Just realised that I've not mentioned this on here before. In making the reflashing tool, I needed a fairly small Linux to work from, so I used BuZz's kernel and put together Ubuntu Server 10.04 (LTS) for Joggler. I recently updated it to sort out some wired network issues and thought I'd open a thread on here to give it a little nudge of publicity.
Basically, what you get is Ubuntu Server, on your Joggler, with working ethernet. No graphics drivers (console output on screen only), no wireless drivers; just a basic server.
I won't go on too much here as there's enough detail on the page itself, but if you fancy using your Joggler as a server (and there's no reason you couldn't add in the video drivers to do nice things like display usage information) then this might be for you.
