I have sad news. You can't get a 4 MB chip on that board, I bet. It is 
probably 4 Mbits, 512 KB. You'll have to put that overweight linux kernel 
on a diet to get it to fit in there. 

One option is 2.4.0 or so, that might fit.

Can DoC fit on your geode anywhere?

 I can't get to this. This means that 4 MB Flash ROM cannot be used with SC1200? Or is it not supported in LinuxBIOS. Plz help me to understand these.
