What is this?

Some notes on Wyse S90. The Wyse SX0 series are all very much alike and behave strangely.

Links

Findings

  • Debian wheezy installer from HARKboot doesn't work, squeeze does!

BIOS

  • Enter with "DEL"
  • Default pass is "Fireport"

OpenWRT installation

I used the debian squeese installer for this. 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

Running OpenWRT

At this point the kernel boots but I don't get a login screen. Network is disabled too.

Todo

  • Check serial console
