BTW: don't they sell their hardware (as well)? I think it should be easy to replace the ROMs (EPROMs? flash ROMs?) using some diagnostic clip and/or JTAG. Unless the CPU itself verifies ROM signatures, they shouldn't matter. -- Krzysztof Halasa - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
