[Arm-netbook] CT-PC89E - success replicating boot from SDcard with switch in NON-factory-default setting

[Adam Gill]

1. I've wired up in all possible configurations ..... now its back to 
the original blob and no short between R46 ...

2. I think I've formatted the SD card in the correct method ... 3 files 
systems 483mb/16mb/1.5gb

2 . I've contacted Chitech to return the netbook ...but they are not 
answering yet ...

So if i cannot return it .... I need one of you Linux experts to get my 
so-dimm working agian ... I've damaged some of the track .. but it ok 
I'm soldering direct onto the 2 resisters where the track came from ...

Adam,
