Does anyone know how to get this stuff into the GW2348-2? It's got a smaller Flash (8M).

BS indicated to me he thought he could put the Avillia version on a diet.

I went the other direction, I asked the boys at gateworks to put 16MB of flash on the test units they sent me and BS. That is probably why it is still larger. He originally did it for the big four mini-pci slot version and hasn't trimmed it down yet. In the interests of time I just asked Gateworks to double the flash.

Good guys, they did it for a small additional charge and FedExed me the units.

PS: I've actually got this unit, but with 32M of memory and 16M of Flash: http://www.gateworks.com/avila_gw2347.htm

I have 2348-4s and 2347s, but I wanted to fit this into a stock 2348-2. I suppose I could mount additional flash myself, but it's a pain getting anything here in Belize. I was really hoping that there was some simple fix. We use a lot of GW boards in our system and have easy access to stock items.

Chris - I'm in Turks & Caicos, so equally remote. What are you guys up to with the product? Just curious!

No matter the 8M flash or 16M flash ,

just change like this under redboot prompt:

fis create -b 0x00800000 -f 0x050280000 -l 0x00500000 ramdisk
fis create -b 0x00800000 -f 0x050780000 -l 0x00020000 mampf
fis create -b 0x00800000 -f 0x0507A0000 -l 0x00020000 nvram
