Hello! Probably. But we need more information. How did you collect the information that you've shown us? How is your system (if that term can be applied) configured? Including how did you connect its serial console? I have one here, about all I did was pop off its housing and study the internals. My other problems were along the lines of setting the boot blocks to boot from an attached USB key. Currently I'm running my activities on a plain black pogoplug. Who has an 8Gig key attached, and one of those portable external drives attached sized 80 Gig and formatted as FAT32. I originally had plans to, do stuff with either via the USB ports but not as if either were wearing drives with stuff on them, but doing something specific. I still want to, ah, target my Dock Star but the difficult part is to workout how to attach that serial console and without damaging things. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drw...@gmail.com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again." _______________________________________________ ARMedslack mailing list ARMedslack@lists.armedslack.org http://lists.armedslack.org/mailman/listinfo/armedslack
