Well, I can't tell you how to tune your hardware or your Linux system, that's outside the scope here. What I can tell you is that the g4u image is just a compressed disk image that starts with the mbr and has everything else in it that you can access from Linux later on, as described in the URL you posted. Why don't you try a simple "gunzip test_t43p.gz" for a start? - Hubert ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
