When you post someones code it is customary to give credit in the post, not just in a readme file in the bundle.

Many days of work by our senior coder and other forum members went into the tools you are posting on this forum, this code was created by our team solely for use in our Andromeda image for the TM800 and has been available on the Technomate download site since it was completed. We don't mind you using our work but at least have the common decency to mention where you got it and the creator of it, especially as you spent quite a while talking to him on our forum trying to figure out how to use it before you posted it here.

Thank you Sicilian

Whilst I am a developer of many tools over on Allsats we work as a team and there are a number of members who make major contributions to all that we release. Also given how flaky the TM800 is in using various disks, etc, we do prefer users to come back with comments on how our releases work with their combinations.

For example, it was only after we released my solution to getting all sata disks working with the TM800 that we found that depending on which TM images you had had on your box the internal disk could be referenced by more than one mount name (a problem with the TM repository/make files only doing a partial overwrite of the flash mountblocks) As all the team had been running boxes from the initial release they were not identical to recent purchases. So based on user feedback I released several later versions. If I release on several sites then older versions will be in circulation and there will be disappointed users.

But again thank you.

After installing Allsat's tools and doing a system cleanup (Credit's go to jimux & Wedgehog) The timeshift seems more stable on the SATA drive:)

Hi everyone,
I don't take credit for anybody's work and I never will that's why I posted credits in the readme . I just want to provide everyone help with what I find. I like this website and since I see people helping each other I thought I would Chip In. This is my first time posting on the web Ive never used forums before, I thought I was doing the right thing by posting credits in my readme's. Didnt think of putting them on my post sorry to allsats who I've upset and in future I'll put credit's on my post's luv 2 u all xxx

This is a little pre emptive, But it has come to light, that the "person" that received help from the Allsat team, was in fact not "Simon4545", and this has been confirmed by the Allsat team

Unfortunately, Simons honour has because of this unknown person, been tainted, due to incredible coincidences, I for one was aggressively chasing Simon down, and although sat forum etiquate was broken, and apologized for, this was not at first accepted fully, it is now, and also wish to thank Simon for accepting my private apologie to him,, which is now public as well
