Title: Sd Card For Flashing?
Post by: LavaDevil on December 04, 2004, 01:36:20 pm

I'm trying to flash OpenZaurus to my SL5500, but the installation docs say I need a CF storage card, which I don't have. I do, however, have an SD card. Is it possible to use it to flash the Z instead of using the CF card?

Unfortunatly no.  The 5500 has to have a fat16 formated cf card.  An sd card will not work. (I believe some of the later models can be flashed with an sd card)

FYI, I can confirm that the SL-5600 *can* be flashed from an SD card.
