BIOS
- Enter with "DEL"
- Default pass is "Fireport"
OpenWRT
Installation
I used the debian squeeze installer in HARKboot for this (wheezy doesn't work). Steps:
- Go trough the installer to the point where it detects (and can't find) disks
- Unload en load modules
modprobe -r ata_generic
modprobe -r pata_amd
modprobe ata_generic all_generic_ide=1
- wget http://downloads.openwrt.org/attitude_adjustment/12.09/x86/generic/openwrt-x86-generic-combined-squashfs.img or bake your own image
- dd it to /dev/sda
Running OpenWRT
With downloaded image the kernel boots but I don't get a login screen. Network is disabled too.
NAS4Free
I managed to boot NAS4Free 9.2.0.1 - Shigawire (revision 972).
- Use the 32 bits embedded download
- dd it onto a usb stick and put the stick in the Wyse
- set the Wyse into usb booting from the BIOS
- Choose safe mode (option 3) when you get the chance (very short window so be quick).
Moar RAM
It came with 256MB DDR SO-DIMM, but 512MB also works (2 tried, 1 success story)
