Intel D945GCLF flashing tutorial
The information on this page have one or more of these issues:
-
It could lack any safety warnings for handling substances
dangerous for Health. This is because some articles expects the
readers to either be (self) trained professional in electronics
repairs and know about how to handle these substances, or to not
attempt anythings that requires these skills themselves.
-
It could lack background information or pointers to information
that explains how to not break computers. So far this only
applies to some articles that explain how to disassemble
computers and/or to modify modify the computers electronic
circuits: some of them expect the readers to either be (self)
trained professional in electronics repairs and know about how
to properly understand some advices to not break the electronic
circuit.
- It could be outdated.
- It could refer to other boot software related projects instead
of GNU Boot.
We also need help (ideally in the form of patches sent to the GNU
Boot mailing list) to fix this website. See
the
Helping GNU Boot
page for more details on how to contribute to GNU Boot.
