This is so not true. If you wipe the partitions (which I have done) you can still access the bios as you would in a normal pc. You press f2 on startup and access the bios. pressing escape at boot will give you a menu of devices to boot from. we have erased all partitions on our eeepcs (we have 2 and have installed others) about 5 times. this thing is like a normal pc except it has a silicon motion flash disk; the rest is like a normal pc including wireless lan etc. There are some acpi extras; Linux driver available for them. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jude DaShiell" <jdashiel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Sunday, February 03, 2008 4:48 AM Subject: re: well I got one > If you wipe the partitions then the bios basic input/output system is gone > until you put new partitions on that drive then it's back again. > > > > _______________________________________________ > Speakup mailing list > Speakup at braille.uwo.ca > http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup >
