Well, I wasn't able to get the output of any commands from a Capio running DSL, but I tried hooking the first serial port up to a laptop and I got some data when the Capio is powered on and the splash screen comes up (it's not much though). I assume that means there is some data exchange going on, but I'm not sure where to go next. The program I used was not a terminal emulator, it was just a serial program that captured all the hex output from the serial port. Is there any way to set up a serial console now so that I can see what FILO/Etherboot are doing?
Thanks,
Jeremy

has some interesting info about Damn Small Linux on the Capio II.
Yeah, I've seen that before, but I'm having a hard time finding a TC325. I'll keep my eyes out for one though. Thanks.
In theory, someone who already has DSL on the Capio II should be able to run some diagnostic tools (flashrom, superiotool, lspci -nnvvvxxx, dmidecode, dmesg). The contents of /proc/iomem, /proc/ioports, /proc/interrupts would also be interesting. Maybe that gives us enough information about memory ranges that should be avoided etc.
