Hi folks. Just a quick follow-up on my round-table question at the last MUUG meeting... I still haven't found a way to access the serial port on the Neoware using Neolinux. So, I went hunting for a small Linux distro dedicated to running minicom. A Google search for "minicom linux boot floppy" pointed our a couple... http://www.asashi.net/pages/pitux.html http://www.riddoch.org/linux/terminal/ ... plus an excerpt from a book called Embedded Linux, which showed you how to roll your own. The second link above also explains how to roll your own, but concludes with a link to his own bootable floppy image. PiTUX also comes with a boot floppy image, as well as an ISO CD image. I was able to get the boot image onto a partition in the Neoware flash drive, and modified the Neolinux lilo.conf to boot from that. (The last part ended up being the hardest part, but I was kind of hoping not to toast the Neolinux image, in case I want to boot to that.) -- Gilbert E.
