I ordered the 5V versions because my EPIA 800mhz board uses the "SST 39SF020A" flash chip which is rated at 4.5/5V.

I ordered the 8Mbyte chip from tri-m and the DIP2PLCC adapter from epboard. I'm looking to integrate everything to the 8mb chip. I think it's really possible because I already made a linux boot disk (uclibc+busybox+mpg321) which connected itself to my home server and played mp3's as soon as it could. > what type of chassis do you use? I made a custom chassis for prototyping use only ;-) The final stage of developpement will be to make something nice for the casing. > and a bios savior to make programming easy. > and a flash chip (there is one integrated in > the bios savior, but that chip is only 256kbyte). I'm very curious and I want to learn everything ;-) My current project consists of: VIA EPIA 800mhz all-on-board fanless mb DC-to-DC power supply (input: car voltage.. 14.4v) VWCDPIC adapter (to connect to the cd-changer input of my car (VW)) DIP2PLCC adapter (for the millenium chip) DoC Millenium (8mb, all right for the linuxbios + kernel + small fs) My first goal is to make it boot in 3 seconds (i think linuxbios can help me achieve it) and start to play mp3's from whatever will be connected to it (for instance, an old hard drive and/or a dvd-rom drive). The mb will feed the audio to the VWCDPIC and the VWCDPIC will feed the commands from my oem head-unit to the computer (rs-232). Right now, it's kinda slow to boot and only starts playing several seconds after i power-up the board. I know there's already products that have the same functionnality on the market, but I want to learn for fun how everything is made and create my own product. My next goal will be to make it play DVDs (once I get a cheap LCD), or rip audio CDs right on the hard drive connected to it, or diagnose what's wrong with my car (vag-com) or whatever I can think of. -- Michel Belleau <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Linuxbios mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.clustermatic.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
