Thanks to Bam for creating a mirror for the new cramfs images!
The files can be found at
http://www.thegrinder.ws/Meanies_XQT/simply download and place all files into same directory anywhere you wish where you have plenty of space and then
gzip -d xqt-install.sh.gz
./xqt-install.sh
that's it.
The xqt-gtk-jumbo.cramfs contains the xqt-gtk-jumbo package which is required unless you already have the full xqt jumbo ipk package installed already
The xqt-apps.cramfs currently contains:
abiword 2.0
dillo 0.8
ethereal 0.10.2
firefox 0.9
gimp 1.2.5
minimo 1.6
sylpheed 0.9.99
thunderbird 0.6
xchat 2.0.5
xmms 1.2.10
which makes it almost 50MB in size
what I am planning to do is to split it up into smaller chunks and add more applications to it.
so my current thinking is
xqt-gtk-jumbo.cramfs (no changes needed)
xqt-mozilla (containing firefox and thunderbird - they use about 20MB which is almost half of the xqt-apps)
java.cramfs (just the blackbox 1.3.1 jre for starters, I will add some working java apps to it in later revisions)
xqt-apps.cramfs (all the previous apps excluding thunderbird and firefox and some additional ones such as gqview and grisbi)
This would come to a rough total of 80MB of compressed applications. This would never had fit into the flash.
on another note to freebird, the best i could get on my 3100 was with everything installed to a 4GB CF card formatted as ext2 and uncompressed openoffice cramfs and it loaded xqt and debian in less than a minute, about 42 seconds and openoffice loaded in 1 minute and 53 seconds.
