Title: TC on WISE terminal - internal flash not recognised
Post by: bmarkus on November 20, 2015, 02:17:45 AM

Hi,

I friend of mine is trying to run TC 6.4.1 on a terminal, WYSE  Model no:x150SE Product ID: Winterm 9150SE. TC works fine booting from USB, but internal flash drive is not recognized, only USB available as /dev/sda. In Puppy internal is working as /dev/sda.

Does anyone have experience with such box? I have never used them and I have no physical access to the machine which is 200km far away.

Thanks... Béla

I see it's a Geode system. Some of the drivers for Geode IDE chips are unstable, and so not enabled in our default config. lspci would confirm.

I doubt so, the chips are very old, probably nobody has touched the code in years.
