Hm, a quick and dirty tutorial:

- download a kernel and the rootfs file
- format a SD card with ext3
- mount the formatted SD card
- unpack the rootfs file on the formatted SD card
- checkout the boot_usb sources, available on svn.openezx.org (I'm out of my main computer now, so I forgot the svn checkout line to check only boot_usb), and compile it
- boot your phone with the downloaded kernel. See http://wiki.openezx.org/Bootloader#B...our_own_kernel .
- after booting, disconnect the USB cable, or he'll try to mount / via NFS
- enjoy the GPE Phone Edition demo!
