I have had mixed luck with flashing milo onto our Nonames. Most of them
seem to work but we have a few that will not run with the most recient
Milos. I am not sure if it is a power or heat related problem. I have
heard that there are several hardware mods that DEC has made to the Noname
boards but the boards I have seem to be lacking in hardware mods.
For the most part I perfer Milo over ARC or SRM. All milo needs now is the
ability to do network booting and then it would be just perfect. A little
bit more work and it could boot NT then it would be possible to use it to
completley replace ARC in situations that require The evil dredid NT ;)
