Re: ipw srcipts for hal

Sorry I didn't read the previous message!
What could be the problem of using both dell and ipw? what does the bios dell switch do?

Why should the script written in C?
All right it should pass the UDI. I will try to do it.

The script handles kill values 2 and 3:
[...]
elif [ "$value" = "1" ] || [ "$value" = "2" ] || [ "$value" = "3" ]; then
[...]
