- I've got somewhere the 3.0 on a disk, which you put in the memory with
- 'rekick', something simular to zkick. The only difference is that it isn't
- reset-proof, when you reset you get back the 1.2/1.3/2.0, or whatever your
- roms are, and you have to reload the 3.0.
- I've tested it some time ago, and it worked fine.
-
- I now have exams, but when someone wants to have it, I'll mail it in 2 weeks
- or so, just let me know.
