armish fdisk/disklabel free sectors
installing OpenBSD/armish on an n2100 I had to manually fdisk
as when I just used `fdisk -i' disklabel only saw 16383*1008-63
sectors free.
I don't know if this is indicative of a problem or whether
it's just information that might be useful to someone installing
but either way it's in the list archives now.
I haven't seen much in the way of power specs published for
these btw, with a 3.5 drive connected the included PSU
(12V 5A made by Seasonic) draws approx 15W (39VA) at idle,
18W (43VA) compiling. (and the soldering's pretty easy).

Is this for com0? yes, you need to attach a .1 2x5-pin header (minus one pin) to the space conveniently located on the drive backplane away from anything that's too easy to damage. I bought a strip with enough to do several boxes, if someone wants one or two headers somewhere I can post to cheaply (.uk/europe) then mail me offlist. if you have multiple boxes to build, you can just move the backplane around if you only need one with a console. you need the serial console to install the OpenBSD boot loader onto flash, or to netboot, but not to actually run it (though it helps). I moved j3 to j4 as well (irq for serial port, info on http://www.debonaras.org/wiki/Info/ThecusN2100 internals page) the fan's not the quietest but not too worrying. runs ok with 512MB RAM borrowed from my main desktop machine, I don't have any larger stick to try it with (the RAM controller in the 80219 is meant to support 1GB of DDR ECC RAM, but I don't know what this board supports). much nicer for port-building than a zaurus :-) thanks to all involved with porting to this arch...(and well, everyone who spends time working on OpenBSD)

I'd be really surprised if yours didn't work with 1GB. diana

Thanks!! embedded system h/w hacking, yippie. look for any pin headers, maybe 4 or 5 together. if there aren't any headers look for a 4 or 5 solder pads in roll. if you find either one of these then you need to first find which pin/pad is GND, then with this knowledge in hand you can start checking voltages on the other pins/pads. You may also find a dual roll of pins/pads of anywhere from 10 - 16 pins, most likely this is the JTAG port. WARNING, mucking about your h/w can 'cause premature failure. I've accidently shorted PWR to GND before, fortunately the DC power fuse failed. Unfortunately the fuse was a very SMALL fuse that was oh so fun to replace.

Re: armish fdisk/disklabel free sectors
Speaking of zaurus -- any way to get a com0 on this thing? You have to buy the special Zaurus adapter for this. It is a little bit hard to find. If you do so, you can even use it as a serial console. Would be nice to plug into a conserver for debugging and bug posts, I've had a few panics... If soldering is required on this zaurus board, count me out! No soldering is required. the adapter just plugs in.
