There are a lot of whinges in the normal boot, but you may indeed have more
now.

The files supplied on 205g balloons are here:
http://balloonboard.org/files/205g/
But you already have ones newer than that.

There are also images on husaberg (aimed at TCL balloons which have a
different set of hardware), but that's the best source of kernels.

Alternatively (as you have a login) you can look on
courthouse.aleph1.co.uk:/home/aleph1/balloon/2.052 which is a slightly
updated version of the same thing including download scripts and tools.

The missing wiki used to tell you all how to do this. I really must find
the time to put the info back in the new version. The short version is
'peruse fillballoon.sh' You just need the last two stages for uploading
kernel and rootfs using xmodem or ymodem.
