Hello again from Gregg C Levine Thanks folks. That worked. Funny thing, these devices, the solutions suggested by the manufacturer didn't work. Which is what I expected.=20 Whereas the MTD method for reviving it, or even a new one for installing the Grub Firmware worked. It still looks for the /boot directory, and the menu.lst file. But at least it works.=20 Next question, how do I put that one, the /boot directory, and the menu.list as when I would use a normal Grub booting arrangement in to the DoC? Oh, and a custom kernel as well. ------------------- P.S.
