word from someone who knows that acpi tables have many errors. Windows
drivers work around the bugs in acpi tables. Linux follows the spec
closely, hence the problems people see with linux+acpi.

Hi,
is LinuxBIOS available for the Asus A7N8X Deluxe mainboard?
Better to say: Would I crash my ROM when I try to flash it with
LinuxBIOS.
I'm really interested in LinuxBIOS for use in quick boot devices such as
mp3-player for car's which based on computers.

I agree. We can use LinuxBIOS + boot from USB stick, the elf or

After that we can use everything about USB in Kernel.

don't test it at all. Just use it, the kernel will find the problems more
effectively than memtest will.
Besides many problems only occur after the system has been on for a while.

I really have no idea. That's what someone else had posted.

I have an EPIA MII, which has an on-board CF adapter. Unfortunately it is
not an IDE interface, but rather cardbus.
I know I could just buy a cheap CF-IDE adaptor, but it just seems a shame
that I can't boot from a CF card in that slot.
I was wondering how difficult it would be to add support

When trying to

Can someone give me
