The participants at VIA's linux forum and linitx.org wrote this HowTo. I'm just the editor and test engineer. The principal contributors, in no particular order, are as follows: _DEAD_, Tony Murray, Sjaak-de-Draak, Master Ki-Adi-Mundi, jonthorpe, Bragon, Huub Reuver, Sean MacLennan, Grigori Goronzy, realkiwi, witch, _totte_ and others. I don't update this sub-section very often. So if you have contributed to linux on the EPIA boards and want to be mentioned here, please send me a message.
The contact person for this How To is Andrew Howlett <andrew at howlett dot net>. If I don't answer my email, then go to the viaarena linux forum and PM radagast.
