I've been messing about with the database files (not important why right now) and now when I try to reboot the empeg the player app continually restarts.

The trouble is that I cannot now do anything with the empeg. I have Hyperterminal connected and can see all the serial output, but I cannot stop the player from re-loading. Pressing q simply doesn't do anything. The keypress IS recognised as it appears on screen, but it doesn't stop the player.

CNTRL-T performs the RAM test OK.

I just need to stop the player so I can access the files and fix the problem. Isn't there someway to boot the empeg but NOT start the player app?

Failing that I can only think I have to re-flash the OEM Developer image and then re-install Hijack (sigh). Surely there's a better way?
