Hello,
I have redboot running on my 860T processor.
Two drivers don't work.  The flash driver and
the ethernet driver.  

I would like to try and get linux going on my 
PC.  

Is there anyway for me to load and boot linux
with redboot in this shape?  Or do I need the
flash driver working.

Thanks, 
 Mike

Sure if you are patient. Download the kernel image over the serial
port using XYZ-modem. It will take a long time, but it should work.
