O2 Joggler Forum

Hi Pete
858mb image thats with 259mb free but no page file and no drivers installed as yet. I am going to try it on the internal MMC before I install everying just to see if it will run natively.
PS. Beast II is on tiny xp rev 11

Thanks mickchip. I did see differences when using the internal USB port versus external specfically with Dan's W2003 build; even after playing some with the boot.ini file.

Reading up on it, Beast Edition is very SMALL. With that name, it should be BIG. With claws.

Dan's last build was based on TinyXP, but I've just read that the install ISO has 10 different install versions (including BEAST 2). Dan might remember which options he went with.

I'm downloading Rev 11 now. I last used Tiny XP on a desktop PC years ago, so I'll see if any of them work for me now on the Joggler. I'm still investigating the full XP Pro mup.sys problems when I get the time.

Great news mikchip, I did have beast edition version 1going but it had troubles installing drivers, hopefully version 2 will not have these issues, and I always use tiny versions as when I go to any smaller build I always encounter problems.

Full XP pro issues are difficult, because even once it boots, I have trouble with any full build freezing on exactly 3 minutes on both 2003 and XP.

Right I'm off to get hammered, birthday pub crawl lol good luck everyone with windows may reply throughout the day on my android, but that's only if I'm not too drunk!!

I need the touchscreen driver and ethernet driver for my Beast II setup, can I get them from another image or could someone post them PLEASE[/u]
Pete this is my present car

They should be in the c:\USBoot subfolders of Dan's image. I think they're also in the 200MB EFI partition, from memory. I might be Joggling later this evening - if you get stuck I can put them somewhere you can get at them.

mickchip,

Can't see the pic.

I can see it, try refreshing the page

it didnt work before as you had referenced a local file, and have since fixed it after pete wrote his message

Yeh I realise that now, I had to edit the pic cause it was to big.

I drive a 1998 Vauxhall Omega Elite - it is blue. I ran a drunk guy over in it last week. Paramedics checked him out OK and the police say no charges.

The mup.sys error was caused when after I applied the VGA.SYS patch to windows\system32\drivers, it wouldn't boot in VirtualPC so I had restored the original and forgotten to re-patch before imaging the physical drive. duh.

I have a fuller-fat Tiny XP working boot. Seems to have all the network components I need to be fully functional. It's slow booting from a memory stick, so it may still be that a HDD/SSD is still recommended with this release.

Same issue with the NIC on Joggler 2 exists - the only thing with an exclamation mark against it. V frustrating.

I also have a MicroXP install that I'll have running properly in the morning. It's really small and quick to boot. So small, in fact, that it may be OK to run this on a USB stick without a paging file.

Good stuff there on the builds Mevi and mickchip,

Very nice car mickchip. I had a couple of Audi's in the early 1990's. Never an issue with them.

Mevi, bet the drunk never felt anything.

Here daily drive is a Mazda or Honda (or Bimmers).

You might know the car as a Cadillac Catera 3.0 V6 - Crappy mileage, terrible runner with an auto box that can never make up it's mind AND it looks a real piece of crap so no photos. Seats are comfortable.

For a UK car, it has a long low bonnet so I scooped him up, carried him a few feet and deposited him back on the road. I was turning into a junction so I wasn't going fast and he said not to worry, but he had bumped his head on the windscreen and said he was dizzy so straight onto the phone to the paramedics.

Great work guys, all drivers I have collected are in the efi partition

Good news Dan!

Yes I am familiar with the Cadilliac Catera. Thinking the guy woke up the next day to thoughts of just a bad dream.

My father had a 70's (think it was 1978) Cadilliac Eldorado Biaritz. It was a "boat"; the seats reminded me of a living room coach. It was rather large with a 400 cubic inch engine. Remember an on a "lark" race once (desert in the SW); between him and me in my 1977 Pontiac Trans Am (big engine; but very slow at the time - you could utilize the fuel consumption as a clock on that thing). My first other car in the 1960's was a hand me down Pontiac Grand Prix. Folks even put it on a boat in the early 60's to tour around the EU. Looking at old movies; the automobile pretty much used up the entire width of the small town streets they traveled on.

Moved the Caddiliac to FL in the 1980's and started to rust a bit from the salt air; mostly apparent on the mechanics; having lost the brake lines one day driving it.

Couldn't really find too many pics; but here is one of the X3 last year during a "snow storm" in TN in the mountains; which was very rare. Its my Bavarian in TN picture. I do recall getting in a sort of game of Autostrada "chicken" one somewhere in Italy; the end result was some guy waving a gun to my nose and me just saying I didn't want to play anymore.

Pete did you have to alter the boot.ini when you used the internal USB or did it just work.
It looks bldy cold on that pic, no doubt it will be same hear in the UK shortly.

I tried and failed with the mods on the boot.ini file when it the internal USB port was utilized for just the W2003 build. No issues with the external USB port on the W2003 build. But some with the W2003 on the USB hub setup. No issues with internal or external USB boot, USB Hub boot on the XP build. I did noticed sometimes (mentioned here somewhere) an odd slower boot sometimes to the 199Mhz speed; very evident when running at the slower speed; a reboot would always fix that.

I did notice on one trip to the UK (London / Wales visit) a couple of years back that a snow storm shut down London; literally. In Wales the folks seemed to be used to the extremes in the weather changes and pretty much lived with them (my personal observation).

Here in Chicago during the winter; one day the temperatures are great and its sunny; next day the temps drop, wind howls and we get an ice storm. But folks are kind of used to it; great lakes do all kinds of stuff to the weather here. A few years ago; after much cold winds and ice; many power lines literally froze and just "broke" causing some major power outages. I had a friend in the "country" close by lose his electricity for about 2 weeks waiting for the electrical company to "rewire" the electric.
