You want to place those files on the DOM. One way to do it is to attach it to your linux host and load all necessary files to it. then put it to your router and boot from it. I modified an old system to have the IDE connector on the front panel for this purpose :-) Another way, boot from CD or floppy, partition and format the DOM, copy everything needed and boot. Remember, once booted from the floppy, it is not needed anymore, you can take another one to copy files from. cheers Erich ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
