If you boot from System Flash then the monitor is effectively removed. You would of course have to have your own boot-up code, PCI enumerator, hardware init, kernel loader, kernel image, etc. in the System Flash all hooked to the reset vector for this to work. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Brady Brown (bbrown@ti.com) Work:(801)619-6103 Texas Instruments: Broadband Access Group ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
