The original CF card had 2 partitions: Partition 1 = OS Partition 2 = DATA If you try to put the image onto a CF card using a card reader, then the second (data) partition does not g...

You can use other ms9 inside an Egret 2. Doesn't have to be 29T.

Probably worth a moment to give a big thumbs up to the crew for that amazing “box preservation” outer bubble wrapping, no?

And the customs friendly declarations.

Congrats @Ikaru
