Flashing specifics
« on: March 04, 2004, 01:08:57 pm »
Hello,

Was wondering if any of you out there were familer with the process that goes on when you flash the ROM. I couldnt find anything out there and was interested in it. Just pointing me in the right direction on where to look would be wonderful. I currently have a SL-5500. Also when/if I piece this together and there seems to be a need/interest (and one isnt already out there) I will write or put together a guide so others can know how its done.

You need to find the original Paul Flinder\'s ROM web page. It explained the layout of the ospack at the very least.

I have a copy at home, but I also think someone may have put it on/in the HowTo/FAQ here.
