A Couple Of Questions.
« on: July 18, 2005, 09:34:03 am »
Is it possible to make a live-SD card? you know something similar to knoppix, so I could test new roms w/out having to re-flash? Is it possible to put debian on the SL-5500? I've seen some threads about debian on the C3x00, and stuff like that, but nothing on the SL-5500. Thoughts?

check out the prepSD.sh scripts that derekp made for the kompany 64-0 ROM. you may also want to look at the 64-0 cacko 5500 ROM. Both of these allow you to run from the SD card, dunno for sure how reboots are handled.

Good luck

ok, but would that allow me to switch out cards? what about debian for the 5500? Other thoughts?
