Compaq Evo T30

Introduction

The Compaq Evo T30 is a thin client. One day, while shopping at Weird Stuff, I happened to pick up about 10 of these for a great price. About half didn't boot, but I think this is because they don't have a plugin memory card. My goal is to install Linux on them.

The ones I have don't appear to be a standard version:

  • Model No.: T30
  • Part No.: 238622-001
  • Spare No.: 292238-001
  • Date Manufactured: November 2002

From powering up into the OS:

  • RAM: 64MB
  • Flash Memory, Device 1: 32MB

Power Up Sequence

Using a 12V power supply, 500mA is drawn after applying power. The LED is orange. After a short period, the LED turns off and current draw drops to 300mA. Pressing the buttong at this point will make the LED green and will return the current draw to 500mA.
