the only thing i tried to do is stick my camera SD card physically into a
slot and it fit just fine.. the rest happened when the OS
got installed.

according to the manual, the PCMCIA thingy dingy accepts all sorts
of doohickies.. there is a big plastic dummy doohickey in there
right now along with the little SD thingy.. i took the SD shapped
plastic dummy plug out and put it next to my 32MB SD card in my
pocket for credit cards in a little plastic sheath thingy where i
put credit cards.  according to the manual, the SD card reader
thingy dingy runs on PCI bus.

that's all i know.

i might have successfully done that.. but at first there was problems
with 6.0.  right now i don't think i have java but i don't know
why.  i thought rudy installed that.  when i make in the java port
it poops. maybe the patches are owned by the wrong person?  some
of them are owned by rudy.  should i "chown * root" or something? or
is it "chown root *" ?

okay i did chown root * and now i am making java i hope.. umm.
shoot but i am booted up on 5.4 right now

oops..
