Hi,

I am a newbie in this area and would like ask if anyone can send a pointer of some good price for a notebook hard drive that can be used under IOpener, particularly in the East Coast area in the US?

While at the IOpener issue, does anyone care to help/point me to the direction on how to make my IO booting with a windows98SE/ME off the network? I seem to have a V4 IO with a D-Link 650TX+ Ethernet USB device.

TIA.

I don't understand the second question.

I have been considering trying to make the IO boot over a network. The most typical method(flashing the bios with lan drivers and using tftp to obtain IP address and boot code) will not currently work as there are (to my knowledge) no DOS drivers for any USB network card.

Given that we have a 16Mb Flash to work with, it MAY be possible to install the base system with appropriate net drivers on the flash and connect to the registry and remaining filesystem once we are in protected mode and have access to the USB network.

My time to do much of anything with the IO is rather limited, but I think the protected mode solution should be viable.
