XeniumOS hangs without DVD drive
Ryzee119 opened this issue · comments
XeniumOS 2.3.1 can hang when attempting to flash a bios when you dont have a DVD drive connected.
This can also impact FTP browsing (will fail to retrieve directory listing)
As the source code for XeniumOS is not available, this type of thing is tricky to fix, but the issue is documented here for information.
The current work around is to ensure you have a DVD drive connected to setup XeniumOS. No DVD drive is needed to just boot into pre-flash bioses.

What does this mean exactly?
Which bioses are pre-flash bioses where no DVD drive is needed?
If you connect a dvd drive, then flash all the bioses you want using xeniumOS, you can then disconnect the dvd drive as you no longer need to access the file browser which causes it to freeze.
Alternatively use the http interface to flash over a webbrowser
