Sooo - it's working!

Today i resoldered all the wiring; jst connectors used to make the power system a bit more modular, and also replaced the wiring loom for my buttons/li with a floppy disk ribbon cable from and old PC.

I am now running a pre-configured image from FDI for the screen - it's cured the flickering, it works 'right out the box' and it is just so bloody quick booting up!!

Next steps:

adding HDMI splitter and panel mount

Exposing Powerboost charging port

Insulating power, button cables and exposed boats.
