Slingshot Pro Help Needed...
« on: March 17, 2009, 03:10:34 AM »
I just picked up an A500 and it had a slingshot pro with it.

From what I understand, the slingshot allows me to use an A2000 Zorro II card with the unit.

Is there any drivers needed or any special configuration needed on my A500 to use it?

I'm just scared I'm going to brick my 500

Thanks for any help!

Wow thanks TjLaZer!  That was a quick response.  I'm going to attempt to add a Zorro II network adapter this weekend... wish me luck.

Hey!  A fellow Washingtonian!

Have a great day!

Hi Topdog -

In the RH picture (the top view) is that an empty socket at the top?

Somewhere buried in my basement I have one of these and have never tried it out because I thought I was missing a chip!

Amigoat,  yes it is an empty socket.  But I did receive a chip to put into the socket as well... not sure what the chip does or if it is even needed.
