When i tried to install the new flash, THE BLOODY THING BAILED OUT ON
ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it said something like:"stay indoors, close all your windows and wait for the
world to end"
When i rebooted my miggy, it didn't do anything, no boards were found, no
scsi, nooooooooooo.....
i tried to flash it again, but it didn't want to since all the info about
clockspeed etc was erased.
in all desperation i used the 'force' option and typed the
clockspeed/scsi/cpu-stuff in manually
et voil�: a working Blizzart with the latest flash

but as you can see: this procedure is not advised to people with hart-or
blattercontrolproblems.
