Hello Dan,
Thanks for the binary test version. Its good to be attacking the
problem from both ends at once :)
I've included my test system specification below. I have had
success under WinXP SP1 with "booting coLinux straight out
of the box (colinux-20040131-bin.tar.gz). I haven't tried the fsck
test/issue reported here, but I have had the network configurtion
issue as reported here. (In windows, I can configure and ping
any IP address I choose, In Linux I get sendto errors).
Included here is a replacement "step 1" for the README, for Windows
XP. I laughed when I saw the number of additional steps over 2k ..
certainly got to consider the TCO when upgrading Windows versions,
hehe, go MS;
1. Install TAP-Win32 (WinXP)
Control Panel -> Add Hardware -> Next -> Yes, I have already connected the
hardware, Next -> Add a new hardware device, Next -> Install the hardware
that I manually select from a list (Advanced), Next -> Network Adapters,
Next -> Have Disk -> Go to the supplied TAP-Win32 directory and choose
OemWin2k, Open -> Ok -> Next -> Next -> Finish
I have also been advised that a friend of mine can probably compile your
driver for you. He has access to the following DDK's;
Windows Server 2003 DDK (English)

Let me know what you want him to run with ...
There seems to be a little terminal emulation issue under the
console (this may be a TERM env issue tho, didn't check) - but
no realy problem. And, once I shut down the virtual system, I
was unable to kill off the windows driver, or restart the system.
Love this project, Dan you're a dude.
