Re: Re: Redboot/Familiar - HOW??
Gary:
Thank you so very much. Using a kernel source tarball from Familiar 0.5.1,
I built a kernel with the Redboot partition snooper enabled. Now, I am
able to boot up into linux on my H3760 and everything appears to be working,
including PCMCIA networking. We are thrilled with this result, and we'd
like to take this opportunity to thank you profusely for you help!!
regards,
