We have a nice Jetstar board (goes to 200MHz, boots from CDROM or SCSI)
for which we wanted the jumper settings for voltage and multiplier in
order to upgrade from 133 to 166MHz so we could try booting from scsi
drive with DOS and/or linux.
Found the information at driverguide neatly packaged in a self-extracting
.exe file.
'This program cannot be run in DOS mode' (or similar).
unzip filename.exe produced four other files (dos, htm, jpg, rtf) that I
can read!!!! (Would pkunzip have also handled it?).
Is there anything special we need to do to boot to a linux scsi drive with
loadlin? I have the DOS scsi driver(s) already working.
