[04:03] <Takyoji> Anyone know have to flash an image on a netbook?
[04:03] <Takyoji> know how to flash an image*
[04:23] <tonyyarusso> Takyoji: You mean the BIOS?
[04:24] <Takyoji> Whichever the OS is installed on; thus I'm assuming not the BIOS. xP
[04:24] <Takyoji> There isn't any BIOS screen or anything for this device that I can tell
[04:24] <tonyyarusso> Um, you install it like any other machine.
[04:24]  * tonyyarusso is confused about the problem
[04:25] <Takyoji> It's a netbook, no CDROM drive obviously, I don't think I can get to a BIOS menu, it's storage is on an internal SSD
[04:26] <Takyoji> just a Windows CE screen at start
[04:26] <tonyyarusso> What makes you think you can't get to a BIOS menu?
[04:26] <tonyyarusso> And you can use either a USB flash drive or USB CD-ROM drive to install from.
[04:26] <Takyoji> Because there is no BIOS screen anything at all
[04:27] <tonyyarusso> so?  Read the manual and start hitting keys.
[04:32] <Takyoji> otherwise for your curiosity, it's a Delstar DS 700
[04:33] <Takyoji> can't even find the official manufacturer website; and for what I can find of a manufacturer manual for it, it doesn't have anything intricate about the system
[04:33] <tonyyarusso> Stop buying weird nonsense :S
[04:34] <Takyoji> I didn't buy it. :P
[04:34] <Takyoji> It was a $100 netbook
[04:34] <Takyoji> ARM architecture
[04:34] <Takyoji> 128MB RAM
[04:47]  * fisch246 cranks Devildriver \m/
[04:50] <fisch246> and don't worry... i've been squeezing in Cloud Cult from time to time :3

[20:31] <FloatingGoat> hello?
[20:57] <Takyoji> So yea, I've taken apart the netbook and I guess the only way to get a Linux installation onto it would be flashing an image to it through JTAG
[20:58] <Takyoji> Anyone have some JTAG equipment, and a JTAG pin port to spare? :P
[21:04] <ColinHarrington> Takyoji: Never done anything with JTAG, but I've got a Bricked WRT54g that needs some debricking
[21:08] <Takyoji> A WRT54G instead of a WRT54GL?
[21:20] <ColinHarrington> G version 2 I think
[21:20] <ColinHarrington> I'd have to check
[21:22] <Takyoji> otherwise I just came across this: http://www.sparkfun.com/products/9544
[22:40] <tonyyarusso> Takyoji: I think there's an #ubuntu-arm channel that may be useful to you.
