[vlc] Re: OT: Booting a Pace DSL4000

[James Burns]

It's true that a boot server is required, however, most of the old
RiscOS system software has been released for free. Also there are
linux and netbsd versions which run on the hardware. So far I've been
able to boot "boot32" from netbsd for the "acorn" computer. The
desktop stuff doesn't seem to work though (not that that's what I want
to use it for anyways). Are there any free / open source packages for
driving these boxes? They seem like a pretty economical choice with a
good form factor.

if im not mistaken last time i looked at a dsl4000 it required a boot
server to run, so the hardware platform alone is no use to you
 
i might be mistaken tho, or could be thinking of a different pace box,
someone else might be able to confirm ....

	I hate to reply to my own email, but wanted to let people know that

	cool too.
