BONUS VIDEO: Totally Normal Libretto Shenanigans
🕑 Added 2023-07-20 18:52:09 +0000 UTCHello supporters! My Libretto started chewing through SD cards, so I want to replace that with the perfect bootable CF card adapter. Plus, let's goof around with my new full size dock!

With the CF card slot it would be very easy to try different operating systems (maybe even MCL) on this. Might be a good video idea to compare some systems in terms of how they hold up in terms of speed and supporting modern things.

Back in the day, a number of the FreeBSD Core developers had Librettos. So you know the OS installed and XFree86 worked with no issues.

If I remember correctly, that dual CF card adapter works perfectly fine on the Libretto, but you can only use one CF card. If you try using 2, it /should/ appear as both a master and slave drive, and you /should/ be able to access it in DOS (using something like WD EZ-Drive). Pretty sure DOS can access both, but Windows refuses to see both drives. Also, I think I just kinda jammed it in the system and screwed it together, even though it didn't fit 100%. I don't really remember how my LIbretto is configured at the moment.

I also have one of those docks for my Libretto, it's awesome. I love having the extra PCMCIA slots!
