-!!General notes
+The 192/256 and 256/256 models have WinXPe on them
, the other models have WinNTe
.
! Video depth
It appears that the driver [XOrg] uses for this unit can't support a bit depth of 24bits, but it does support 16bits.
-Interestingly
, if
you allow
the bootp
to wait, it times out after an hour and tries to tftp /tftpboot/kernel on port 10069
.
+! [PXE] Boot
+
+The 64/64 model has an image for WinNTe + PXE
, which can be downloaded from Compaq's website. The WinXPe models appear to both support [PXE] boot. If
you don't have one of these models,
the other models can be made
to PXE boot by modifying the firmware
.
! Flashing the device
-You need a program called netxfer, available from compaq
's download site. This needs MS Java, however, which is not available from MS anymore. Try http://java-virtual-machine.net/download.html
