We are missing the proper driver to get the new M-systems solid state 576 megabyte flash disk working under Linux, and we have to find a way around this somehow. This size disc is needed for development and is on the direct path of installing the localized Linux with graphic interface. This installation is necessary for the display of Lao fonts. We have put out an appeal to the open source community for their assistance.
At the relay site on the hill, we are building the platform to mount the solar panels in the tree and we are reinforcing the platform that will hold the Jhai PC and the antennas. The batteries box has been enclosed in a welded steel stand for protection.
At the termination site in the town of Phon Hong, both the electrical and telephone lines have been attached to the water tower where the Jhai PC and its antenna will be mounted .
