Hijack v457 is now available.

This version implements a proper workaround for a dead cs4231a chip, so that full functionality of the player is preserved -- except for visuals in Tuner/Aux modes.

So, in many (or most?) cases, a player with a "cs4231a not found" condition can still be fully used, with the only caveat being that the front screen visuals no longer respond to the beat of the sound when in Tuner/Aux modes (visuals work fine for hard disk playback of mp3s etc.).

This should help save a number of players from the soldering-iron / scrap-heap when the cs4231a dies.

------------

The previous release of Hijack was v456, which added support for configuring/using kernels that mount their "disk" over NFS -- complete diskless empeg operation. This requires a kernel reconfig/rebuild to use. No changes for normal use though. This patch courtesy of Thomas J.
