<div>Folks,</div>

<div>I just lucked into an Axil 255, which I had never actually heard of. There was a post on this list back in 2002 where someone had one, but I apparently missed it.</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>The machine even works, except for the (expected) IDPROM failure:<br /></div>

<div>Color me happy! I'll have to do some investigating and testing.</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>I'm going to guess that the original MAC address and hostid are lost, but since I don't have any HDDs installed in it, yet, that's not a big deal.</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>Has anyone else either used, or still got, one of these?</div>
