+ <title>Updated cactus extensions</title>
+ <text>The "cactus" firmware extensions have, since some days, support for drives 06 (minimally tested) and 08 (untested), in addition to drive 04. If you want to review or test the new stuff look at the <a href="http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/gc-linux/linux/">CVS</a> and <a href="docs/download.html">Latest Kernel Build</a>.</text>

+ <title>Cactus firmware extensions</title>
+ <text>An alternate experimental DVD driver is now available with support for DVD-R media using the "cactus" firmware extensions (it currently works with drive 04 models only). Create a DVD device file if you don't have already one (mknod /dev/dvd b 60 0), load your DVD-R on your GameCube, mount it (mount -t iso9660 /dev/dvd /mnt), and access it just like in any other Linux. All code is available on <a href="http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/gc-linux/linux/">CVS</a>. And the <a href="docs/download.html">Latest Kernel Build</a> has already integrated the new code.</text>
