You might try Conrad or any other electronics shop.

This will work, I did such a lot of times. With the flash_rom utility mentioned in the FAQ you can also easily create a rom backup file of your original bios. (Be sure to copy it to another machine or floppy before erasing the flash chip though ;) Stefan ___ Linuxbios mailing list Linuxbios@clustermatic.org http://www.clustermatic.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
Re: wiki.linuxbios.org
Hi all, I am reading the linuxbios list for about 4 month, looking forward to use linuxbios on my Epia M1. I am not sure, if I build everything allright. Maybe with the complete update of the website, there could be ready-made ROM images available to download. I want to boot from hda, which is a CF card. The next thing is, how do I get the ROM image to the flash? The flash is a SST39SF020A. The best solution would be that I use a second flash to play with linuxbios, but I can't find a distributor in germany willing to sell small quantities. My colleage has a programmer, which supports that flash. The idea is, that he saves the standard BIOS and writes linuxbios to it. In case the linuxbios image does not work, the original BIOS could be rewritten to it. Would that work? Thank you in advance for your help.

Re: wiki.linuxbios.org
I will be establishing web storage space for files (originally for myself, but I can make it available to others). If you need space, I'm going to configure websites like: http://linuxbios-wiki-resource.windex.org// that are intended for use by wiki maintainers to publish binaries, PDF files, and the like. It will likely only be available via SCP, so using 'scp' or FileZilla would be required. If you want an account, please let me know your wiki userid (so I can keep track of who is who), and I'll shoot you back a password/login information. You of course will need to agree not to abuse my DS3 connected personal machine for non-linuxbios related purpose. :) If anyone wants to CNAME me a record off of linuxbios.org, I'll be happy to set it up to maintain consistancy. Maintaining FTP space is a lot of work, so I'll be happy to do it for anyone with edit access and provide access to anyone who wants it for mirrors. The machine already has some "general public" type user accounts and is without incident (so far). Justin Li-Ta Lo wrote: On Tue, 2005-03-01 at 15:46, Ronald G.
