These images are "Copyright Stallion Technologies", but are freely redistributable. Stallion provides these images "as is", and disclaims any warranty, or fitness for any particular purpose. Absolutely no support is supplied by Stallion when using these images outside if officially supported Stallion product. So, anybody is free to use them and redistribute them, but no support is provided by Stallion. > > Alternately, is it in a standard location as a seperate file on the > disks that come with the boards so an install script for FreeBSD can > be written and thrown into "ports"? Yep. All supported operating system drivers for these boards from Stallion have these images on them. But, it would be easier if they where just in the FreeBSD distribution already :-) Seeya Gerg --------------------------------------------------------------------------- DISCLAIMER: I do not officially speak for Stallion Technologies.
