Hi Robos, >> -I'm thinking about what to use: DOC, compact flash card on ide or hdd >> ide. DOC seems to be rather hard to get in my place (germany) and >> seems to be rather expensive.

RGM> rudimentary with IDE is good, it works with almost anything. If you have RGM> the hard drive, use it ... I know about your problem. I've had it some times ago (Hallo Robos. Mach Dir mal keinen Kopf, das Zeug kriegt man Deutschland auch. Ich hab insgesamt 3 davon. Zwei von cwlinux und einen von advantech. Melde Dich, falls du an einem Interesse hast. Zwei reichen mir auch. War Missverst�ndniss bei der Bestellung.) You can get DOC at www.advantech.com. They have german sales too. Advantech Europe GmbH Kolberger Stra�e 7 D-40599 D�sseldorf Tel.: 0211 / 974 77 350 Fax.: 0211 / 974 77 300 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.advantech.de I've bought mine from them. But you have to pay about 50� (incl. shipping). >> -Some of you seem to use the mobo as the burner.

Concering a cheap burner (thread from some time ago) : >> There is a nice thing I try to build (www.loet.de/flasher.html - site >> in german but some nice pics and schematics). Now my question: if I >> have to rip out the bios chip while running, what's to take care of? >> Straight up, pin 1 first or last...? RGM> just rip it out. I've only fried one mobo this way :-) Do it this way or buy a switch. I think Andrew from cwlinux sells this one in his LinuxBIOS SDK. I bought one of his SDK and the switch rocks.
