Well, I thought you might not be the only one who would want to hear it. 
Consider it also a partial introduction for me ;) I'm a Puppian for 
sure, although I'm not certainly not representing Puppy in any official 
capacity! By the way, I'm also a community dev with Puppy -- I created a 
Puplet for artists, that I'm sort of maintaining, called Vincent Van Pup 
("sort of" because I need to mix up the next revision and I keep dang 
procrastinating...). *truly shameless plug* the thread for that Puplet 
(Vinnie, for short :P ) is here, if there's any interest at all -->

It's not "interference" that I'm concerned about with the EEPROM. It's 
an interface issue -- how does an OS, eg FatDogARM, "know" that the 
EEPROM is there, read the contents, and act accordingly...? I know that 
ARM is largely un-autoprobe-able...
