Hi All, I'm sorry for this very basic question, but I can't get past square one. I have a mini2440 with no LCD. The DVD that came with it is bad, so I downloaded DNW 0.50A. I am using a windows desktop machine, and per the "essentials" docs on the andahammer.com site I hooked up both a serial cable and the USB cable (the A to B cable - slave port). I set the switch to NOR. I started the device and pushed its reset button. I am able to get DNW to connect to the serial port but not the USB port. DNW seems to give me an opportunity to upload a file to it but I'm not interested in putting another op sys on it just yet, I would at least like to startup up the Linux that came pre-loaded. Since I could not make any progress with DNW I loaded up a terminal app, but still no joy. I tried NOR and NAND, powering down and up and the reset button but I can't get the mini2440 to give me any output. So how do I talk to this thing? I saw the "first steps" thread, but that is really the second step. The first step is just being able to talk with it :-( Thanks...
Very basic startup question
I made some progress. Using an ethernet cable and some scanning tools I discovered that it comes up on IP address 192.168.1.230. You can log in as root with no password.
