It can be done -- I did it about 1 1/2 ago. IIRC the obvious place to download the SRM bits from had directions that either didn't work or didn't make sense (I don't recall). I either found another directory in the firmware collection that gave better directions; or I used the pervious firmware collection that had other directions. I know this isn't much help, but I did want you to know it can be done; and we'd *love* to have the steps documented in the email archive once you figure them out.
