USB BOOT is Possible??

Hey guys (sorry for my bad english)

yesterday i disassembled my anyka netbook (allfine pc 703)
and i've seen near the reset button a small square with the written "USB BOOT". In your opinion is posssible load roms directly usb service port???

thanks

Yes, you can boot from USB flash but the exact procedure is not known.

oh! interesting, how can be it???

Stick a USB flash with the led indicator in back USB port and when the netbook is booted the LED flashes so it is being accessed but do not boot.

otoluk a question:
have you tried to solder a button on the motherboard in the USB BOOT space???

see this image

i think without the button the boot will not start.

But what should it boot? Even if it is soldered I don't know for what it is looking for.

Gentlemen,

The (not-soldered) button usb-boot has the same function as the two pins you have to short out to upgrade/flash
the device (in my case a zenithink).
Unfortunate it is not possible to actually boot from the USB port!
During boot the netbook looks for a serial connection on this port but can not boot from it.
Nevertheless it is possible to boot from the SD-card when the flash rom is empty or corrupt.
But that is very tricky to do because you have to put the exact whright image on the SD-card.
With the anyka flash tool this is not possible because the tool always writes to the onboard flash.

i tried to get linux (on SD-card) on this device but that is more than tricky.
There are some issues with the peripheral-chips.

If it works i let you know!

Greetings

I have put an windowsce 6.0 image, I downloaded from the internet,(chinese)and put a new updated command line together with the chinese one,and got an updated english version...and it boots perfectly.
