Thanks for that John. I've tried that, but it always gives me the same message. Loading up, but it can't find Linuxboot.cfg. I'll try again with several variations and hopefully it'll work.

Allright, I managed to flash a different bank, it said it flashed bank 0 though. When I try anything on the current bank, it just flashes 0 again. When I go to bank 0, I need to turn it on 3 times for it to stay on, then nothing happens. Is that what's supposed to happen?

Okay

I here by put out a request to general public for a simple step by step guide to setting up the chameleon ..

from the past few posts it is clear that alot of people are confused about bios and dash .. this worries me ..

Please read alittle more before attempting to install and set up your chips ..

having said that ..

Bejiba i think u ment to say "bios"  .. and if that is the case then u either have a bad bios or u used a 512k version in which case set your chameleon to mode 2 .. and it should boot into the bios u flashed .. if not . .then simply choose another bank in mode 1 boot  back into cromwell and reflash with a 256 k version of your bios choice ( I strongly recomend u find a "colour" mod version of the bios )

pimpĀ„ I am sure u will find it alot faster and easier if you try look  through some of the very good tutorials available on this site. wink.gif

The same thing happened to me, what I did was go back to another bank, 3 for example, flash bank 0 with the original linux bios that was shipped with the chip, switch to bank 0, then flash bank 0

U do not need to switch between banks ..

No matter what bank u boot in the Chameleon-Cromwell bios will only ever flash bank 0 (265) or 0+1 (512) .. this is done by desing in order to try and prevent a user from locking themselves out .

The only thin k you need to remeber is if you boot in any other bank other than 0 .. you should change back to 0 when the flashing is done in order to access your new bios ..

Another common mistake is to use a 512k bios and to try and boot in mode1 change to mode 2 for a 512k bios .

dude i had the same problem and all you have to is this, you need to get the "OZXFlashCD" and put it on cd .. then put it on bank whatever you want .. after that put in the OZXFlashCD and then let it do its thang ... after that it will prompt you to put in the bios you prefer .. take out the OZXFlashCD .. then put in the cd with your bios on it. and hten walla! .. it will shut down from there take out the cd. put it back on bank 0 then push power. that should help.
