Re: [Leaf-devel] ADM Write Protect
Manfred, I have a meeting this week with SST distributor Symmetry Electronics. They are providing me with a 8MB unit, so my father can try to create a jumper/switch that enables/disables WP. The people at SST have indicated that WP is possible. It looks like the Apacer representative below is saying the same thing. A hardware change is needed. Specifically, creation of a jumper that connects pin 62 of the LD017 controller chip to ground is needed to use WP. Does your Apacer ADM have an LD017 controller chip on it?

RE: [Leaf-devel] SF Mirror
Ibiblio might be a good mirror for LEAF. They just added another terabyte of storage online, they have a lot of bandwidth, they are Linux friendly, and they are willing to host .org web sites. http://www.ibiblio.org/about.html BTW, both leaf-project.org and leaf-central.org are currently available. Wouldn't it be neat if LEAF's home page was something like http://www.leaf-central.org? Well, I'm off to Seattle again. I'm getting tired of road trips.

Re: [Leaf-devel] ADM Write Protect
Mike, I don't own an Apacer ADM. I want to buy a Flash-Disk with write protection. At the moment I'm checking out a M-sys DOC-module on an M-Sys PCI evaluation board. I'll send you information about it ASAP. Manfred Mike Noyes schrieb: Manfred, I have a meeting this week with SST distributor Symmetry Electronics.

Then you could boot Oxygen (or PacketFilter, or...) and run this script which tests the environment. David, Exactly. Then I thought we could take this output, and use it to check new packages for release/branch compatibility. The output could be placed in a text file, and parsed by another script that is designed to test packages. This new script wouldn't run from a LEAF environment. Instead, it would use a development environment. A release/branch lead developer runs the environment test script on his/her release/branch. He then places the output files on our site. A package developer downloads the environment test script output files to a machine with the package test script. The package developer then tests his/her new package. Well, that's not quite what I had in mind. For me, I was thinking more along the lines of: A distribution developer perhaps runs a script, writes some shell code, etc. - and creates a package (or shell script, really) which tests for various things. The script (or scripts) would work within the LEAF environment... Then a package creator (or software developer) would run a compilation of these scripts (which would have some overlap... and which overlap would be removed...) and it would tell him if his code was compatible with the environment or not.
