Hey guys,
Please bear with me, I have some questions that are probably pretty basic but I can't find the answers anywhere. My first question is what does the DiskOnChip provide to the LinuxBIOs project that the standard flash chip can't? My second is that I'm going to be using the VIA EPIA MII motherboard which has a PLCC BIOS, as far as I can tell PLCC DiskOnChips aren't very readily available. Should I use a DIP to PLCC adapter; how did the other people who used this board do it? My final question is how do I pick the size of the DiskOnChip. What is LinuxBIOS's typical size requirement; do motherboards have a maximum BIOS size limitation? If BIOSs do have a maximum size limitation how do I figure it out, VIA says says the BIOS for my board is 2/4Mbit flash memory. Sorry if these seem very basic.
