Simon, that's a good summary of Unix flavours. :cheers:
If you could get EFILive program to stop wanting the driver through Explorer/Device Manager it might work in Codeweavers or WINE or whatever .
Like I have said Linux has moved forward since the old days , but MDK is so much easier so no one wants to fuss with the API , Mono : http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page has done a lot to help Linux port Winders software !
If we are having a "Mine is bigger than yours contest...." the last HP server I administered.....
HP Superdome
16 X 1Ghz PA-RISC cpu's
20 GB RAM
2.6 TB of primary disk with 2 sets of HDS Shadow Image / True Copy clones ( so 2.6 x 3 = 7.8 TB ).
that was a couple of years ago now.
The most "impressive" server I had was the NCR 5500 series though...
16 x Pentium 90 CPU's
4GB RAM
44 separate SCSI WD busses
300+ mount points
The NCR box was decommissioned for Y2K so you can imagine what a beast it was in it's day.

You can buy a laptop without a OS (Operating System) for 300 bucks cheaper then install Linux which you can get for free and load EFILive then tune away . :anitoof:
Linux can run on PPC (Mac) without emulation .
Why not? :)
OK, what can us Linux users do to assist in getting EFILive ported to the GNU/Linux realm - preferably the Debian/Ubuntu flavor?
We are here to test, evaluate and help.

it would be cool, I would much rather get a laptop and run Linux than windows.
Still pondering a MacBook Pro and put Windows on dual boot or with Dameware/Parallels. And then I could setup Linux too.... Best of all worlds!
I came up the Dec PDP-11 in school (basic only, I just hacked at games like Super Star Trek and tried to keep within out 50k user limitation, so often I had to print out the code, and type it back in!), then Apple II+ with a CPM card and then nothing for a while until we got a Mac Plus with System 7.1 (ha! I still have the original full installer boxed set). I never did programming, never really my bag. I messed with Java and some Unix scripting, but would DARE call myself a programmer... I am so lost in the code it isn't even funny!
As said , would need the source code to port to Linux , but sounds like V8 would be the best bet for porting .
If had source could port through Mono . Could see a Lenovo S10 Netbook with Linux and EFILive just setting there waiting to be used for tuning !
