Submitted by wspies721 on #1

Can you please send me documentation for getting this to work on Linux? I want to use the CLI only and I have (unfortunately) purchased this now.

Actually, wait. I'm not giving up yet. I get a Win10 laptop in a month and I want to try that out. Also, if I were to somehow get this over USB 2.0 as opposed to USB 3.0 do you think that would make a difference?

Submitted by Michael on Thu, 2018/08/30 - 20:55

Yes USB2.0 might work. If you plug a usb 2.0 hub into your server then plug the writer into that. Then give it a try via virtualhere.

I'll give USB 2.0 and also when I get Win10 give that a try -- and keep my license for now. Thanks. I'll let you know.
