You can find them easily, it was linked at PicoBSD web page and linuxrouter.org. I tested on Linux, and some guys reported successful working. But, I encountered some problems. I think the drivers is not stable not yet, they did not release the final version, but just beta versions. I think flash disk is more stable than DiskOnChip for it is identical to HDD. no need to compile the kernel and only connect it to HDD connector. -Cheol --------------A640C5B0D09B8DF7BB7157F3 Content-Type: message/rfc822 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Message-ID: <3665CF23.63EB4F0E@cintel.co.kr> Date: Thu, 03 Dec 1998 08:37:07 +0900 From: Ryu Cheol <ryuch@cintel.co.kr> Reply-To: ryuch@cintel.co.kr X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (Win98; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "Jason J.
