Boston Area old IO's? (modified 0 times) Trade for hot-swap? Hey, I got a 'new and improved' I-Opener today, I was wondering if there's anyone in the Boston area who has an old IO that i could use to hot-swap-flash my bios. There's a six-pack or whatever in it for you. please get back to me at bhaskell (at) tufts (dot) edu Maybe we could set up some sort of meeting where someone with an old IO could flash a few new ones, then those new ones in turn flash other new ones. Again, beer's on me ;) 04-11-2000 20:17:17

RE:Boston Area old IO's? (modified 0 times) lil' cred Just to lend a bit of credibility, I was the one who first posted the bios screenshots that have gotten so many hits at http://www.tufts.edu/~bhaskell/bios.htm 04-11-2000 20:32:44

RE:Boston Area old IO's? (modified 0 times) Dknight Yea see my post on the ones im selling (if they ever come in) but the point is to try to help people out and meet a few i-opener folks in my area, I already have one myself to modify and I'm interested in working together with people on the BIOS issue for example,it seems that people are having trouble with the badflash bios, according to some posts in tech area 04-13-2000 09:34:50

RE:Boston Area old IO's? (modified 0 times) tafkact I don't have an old one, but I do have 2 new ones. 1 has a cracked socket, damn. I'd like for "us" in the Boston area to be able to get together and have an "install-a-thon", just like they do with linux, et al. Just as soon as I order and get the mod kits.... 04-13-2000 16:33:46

RE:Boston Area old IO's? (modified 0 times) Brian hehe, once i figure out a way to get the image and the flasher onto my IO i'll be sure to try it, but until then, i guess hot swap is my only option. 04-20-2000 12:52:02

RE:Boston Area old IO's? (modified 0 times) Brian,+too+late, Brian, It was at the shriners off I93, they aren't nearly as good as they used to be, your best bet seems to be on the net for parts but there are other shows coming up go to http://www.pcshow.com. Dknight 04-22-2000 15:39:11
