Can I still activate it? Will it still firmware update? Does all that still work??
Ok. Plugged it in, it got toner screen. Seemed to hang on connecting to network. Waited 10 minutes. Repowered it, now it sits on the chumby name with the squid on the left going up and down slowly
Powered off and on using plug and switch.
Any ideas how to 'start over' or troubleshoot?
Well, you can take it into "special options" just like a small chumby, restore to factory settings, and try again.
It sounds like it's having trouble connecting to your network. It should have eventually timed out on the sexipus screen.
You can also reflash the firmware manually, see here, in case it's somehow too old or was corrupted somehow.
