This was : easily done since they did not have to disasemble the IOpener, just open : the expansion memory door. My guess is that the boot from (external) : option has ben disabled in the BIOS but I haven't played with it yet. The : IDE connector is still there. Does anyone have any experience with : (post-linux-hack) IOpeners? The BIOS refuses to boot if there are *ANY* other devices on the scsi chain. I think this is in the BIOS, but might be in the QNX boot loader. Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-small" in the body of the message
