Just thought I'd add another fairly painless way to write m0n0 to a "hard drive" that leaves you with a useful diagnostic/repair tool for Windows when you're done: Get the installer for the "Ultimate boot cd for Windows" from http://www.ubcd4win.com/ and follow the easy instructions on how to build the boot cd. You need a Windows XP install CD. The only "non-standard step" is to create a directory somewhere on the hard drive of the machine where you are building the boot CD and name it whatever - "custom" might work. Copy the img file and physdiskwrite to that directory. In the UBCDW build window you then specify that custom directory in the "custom directory" field when in the build phase for the boot CD. ;) Burn the boot CD to a disc, boot from the CD and presto, a windows environment with physdiskwrite and the img file in the root of drive X: - just run it and you're done. The CD can then, as I said, be used as a diagnostic tool for ailing Windows installs among other things. I needed the windows boot disc for other things and wound up doing the above today and it installed m0n0 just fine on my new Transcend 256MB IDE Flash module. -- -{ Kimmo Jaskari }--{ kimmo dot jaskari at gmail dot com }-- Progress isn't made by early risers.
