I even tested it on my sheevaplug and other that I haven't yet figured out how to get flash going, it worked without any intervention. Any suggestions on getting rid of the need for a console by supplying #F/flash/flash0 and putting intelligent settings in there? I'd love to get to the point where the sheeva just starts up without human intervention when there are file and auth services for it to use. I'm a little concerned about guessing my way around flash, I'd rather have instructions that are known to work. But the sheer simplicity of the whole system is mind boggling. ++L
