Surprisingly, Sun's JavaOS 1.0 environment for the JavaStations is still
mirrored about on the Internet even today (Oct-31-2001).
JDSE 1.0.1 can be found at:

Download the link labeled 'jdse.tar'. JDSE 1.0.1 was one of the
first demo version of JavaOS available, and was a free download. Later,
downloads were restricted to paying customers. This first version
is merely a boot image of JavaOS and the HotJava browser. No telnet or
ssh applet, no X Windows applet, no file manager, no email applet, nothing
but the browser. Starting to feel boxed in? Welcome to the official
software of the JavaStation.
</para>
<para>
Copies of latter versions of JavaOS as included in the NetraJ software
bundle have not been located online yet. This is probably due to
the latter versions, namely NetraJ 2 and above, was retail software,
and never available for free download from Sun's site.

Pete Zaitcev has written a document describing how to enable IDE on
your Espresso model JavaStation. It is included here with Pete's
permission.

I am not responsible for any direct or indirect damages to your
equiment or yourself resulting from you reading this document.
USE THIS INFORMATION ON YOUR OWN RISK.
IDE interrupt line is connected "upside down" on the Espresso.
To have IDE working we need to insert an invertor in it.
We borrow the invertor from ISA IRQ3. If you want to use ISA
modem, set it to use COM3/IRQ4 (please realize that Linux IRQ
level would be programmed in CPU PCIC).
The following picture provides an overhead view:

I recommend to proceed in the following way:
1. Disconnect 1202 5 & 6. Not knowing if I need them I lifted pins with a
model knife. You may just cut them with side cutters.
2. Lift pins 1200 10 & 11 but do not cut them!
3. Run wires from resistor pads "A" to pin 1200 11 and from pad "B" to
pin 1200 10. Resistor pads are much easier targets for soldering at home
than pads under pins 1202 5 & 6. I am a software engineer, so I did it
the easy way.
I did not bother to glue wires as a decent electronics hacker would do.
You are all set. Get kernel 2.4, hack drivers/block/Config.in and enjoy!
P.S. Let me know if you have drawings of hard drive brackets for Espresso.

<title><productname>JavaStation</productname> Boot Monitoring Key
Combinations</title>
<para>
When booting your JavaStation, there are certain key combinations you can
press to enable some boot monitoring functionality.
</para>
<screen>
Javastation Key Combinations
These are the key combinations that allow you to perform the command monitor
functions:
Press left Alt, left Ctrl key, letter; then turn the power on. You have to
have the keys pressed when you turn on the power otherwise it will not work.
Ctrl-Alt-H Help on chords
Ctrl-Alt-B Show progress banner
Ctrl-Alt-W Show Ether net address and memory size
Ctrl-Alt-D Run diagnostics
</screen>
<para>
These key combinations do not work with the Mr. Coffee model.
