PulseAudio allows you to set names for audio inputs and outputs using pacmd update-sink-proplist, but this only works if the device is present when the rules are run. This works perfectly fine for renaming the built-in sound devices, but doesn't work for my new USB DAC. If the DAC isn't …
I just got an Osbone 1, in mostly-working-condition. Let's have a look at it.
I bought this from a seller on the local used item website, and while it's very yellowed in large swaths, it does appear to work! It was demoed to me working, so I at least …

This document was written many years ago, and the nature of Open Source projects like coreboot means that options may change in name and or in function. The rest of the guide (extracting and flashing the BIOS) should remain largely the same.
