Building some Chumby software

Some time ago I bought a Chumby One with a cracked screen (and practically dead touchscreen) to play with. Cracked chumby I can't run any of the normal Flash/Chumby stuff on it because of the screen, but it is still a functional little ARM box with a small screen, speaker, rotary controller, 802.11, USB, button etc.

Sometime back, I installed the required scratchbox, unbroke wine (SBOX_CONF_BIN_W32=0 in scratchbox-configuration) and built some stuff. Today, I finally got around to trying things out on the device.
I also took the opportunity to have a closer look at mksh.
I'll try to write down some instructions and programs for the Chumby.
