Despite previous questions on this subject, I am uncertain about getting 
started with the new firm ware, so I am asking for additional help:

Working with a previously loaded 2 gigabit card and the previously loaded 
software and firm ware:
1.  What should I expect to see after starting the check disk when focused on 
flash card memory?  I have seen a NCC.html screen but it just sits there for a 
long time seeming to do nothing.

2.  Do I have to reload Daisy formatted stuff to navagate to the headings of 
all levels?  The 3-6 key moves forward through what seem to be level 1 
headings, but the 6-9 and 9-# do not appear to navagate to levels 2 and 3.

3.  Will it be necessary for me to reformat the flash card and start over with 
the installation of firm ware and reading materials?

******** more Background below

Unfortunately, I only learned the proper steps for getting started after first 
unintentionally loading an RFBD book which the transfer program had found in a 
CD drive.  Then, I intentional loaded the upgrade to 2.20.  The upgrade to 2.2 
may have been previously loaded, as the previous software was setup to 
automatically check and install upgrades each time it  had access to the 
internet.  After that, I deliberately upgraded the software.

As you can see, I was just feeling my way along without much of an idea how to 
interact with the transfer program.
