Yeah, your init is not working, the map file is not getting cat'd to /dev/ir, or it is not getting recognized. Did you make sure that your modified init is actually on the player? Connect with terminal program and type

cat /sbin/init

and make sure it looks like what you posted above. Frank V, are you around? Does he have this setup correctly?
