Everything went flawless with me and I agree with msumike. Just stop the service and restart after you've disconnected the Pre. I love all my apps now.

I got the following error when trying this today. Really not sure why. (My pre has been rooted, but still...)
C:\Program Files\Palm\SDK\bin>palm-install.bat Z:\Downloads\dotGame_1.0.0.ipk connecting to device castle-linux (F38C1EF7BF052494D3784CA1128698282D9DF3B2:usb:49419) copying Z:\Downloads\dotGame_1.0.0.ipk to /media/internal/developer/dotGame_1.0.0.ipk on device castle-linux (F38C1EF7BF05249 4D3784CA1128698282D9DF3B2:usb:49419) installing package /media/internal/developer/dotGame_1.0.0.ipk on device castle-linux (F38C1EF7BF052494D3784CA1128698282D9DF3 B2:usb:49419) palm-install: FAILED_NOT_ENOUGH_INSTALL_SPACE Size Used Available Use% Mounted on 6.7G 593.4M 6.1G 9% /media/internal |

Having said that, I have tested installing homebrew apps, and the following seems to work (in Linux): 1) Get into Developer mode. 2) Connect your Pre via USB. 3) Run the novacom software. 4) Mount "/media/internal" on the Pre: ("mount internal" when you're in the /media drive) 5) Copy the ipk file to your Pre in Linux (outside of the novacom shell). 6) Go into that directory in the novacom shell (e.g., "/media/internal") and run: ipkg install <ipk-install filename> 7) Reboot your Pre. This seems to work fine.

Mac Users i have figured out a way to install them. DO everything the guide says. when he says to drag and drop the .ipk files, do this instead. Search your mac for 'palm-install', when found double click on it, the terminal should pop up with brief instructions. Copy the first example from '#' to 'palm-install'. Close out of the terminal and open it up again from the utilities folder. paste the copied text, tap the spacebar to add a space, then go to your .ipk files and drag them into the terminal, then hit enter and there you go. Worked for me on my mac. Make sure your pre is on charge only.
