Hi Oliver,
Thank you for having answered me,
When I followed the MSDN tutorial to connect my development workstation to
my CEPC, I used a disk image file called cepcboot.144.
In that case everything went like you described in your mail and I was able
to download my image using an ethernet connection.
But now I am using (following the MSDN tutorial "how to boot an os image on
a cepc from hard disk drive") another disk called bootdisk.144, but in this
case the disk does not boot, I don't arrive to the screen with the entry, it
stops to the screen that shows the component of my PC.
I dont know if there is something wrong in bootdisk.144 .
Thank you.
Daniele
