Thanks for this nice article. If you are more often using OS X than windows like me, you can choose the partition to boot from under System Preferences in OS X :-) . Cheers, Tom Hi!

I have O2 in UK. This was the LAST PIECE OF PUZZLE for me. I needed to install usb_modeswitch program (having read http://dalelane.co.uk/blog/?p=254 and located the source via http://www.draisberghof.de/usb_modeswitch/) There were a couple of issues - 1) compiling modeswitch required that i run synaptic from command line and install usb_dev and ....2) Mr draisberghof has a suggestion for mdifying /etc/udev/rules.d files....well, I found a file (99-novatel-ovation.rules) and that called a script in /usr/sbin/ovation.sh. The suggested mod was to make this script call usb_modeswitch AND modprbe usbserial vendor=blah etc.....but....that (as someone else pointed out) didnt work with the usbserial module that I had. ****BUT*** the "modprobe option" command suggested by Risotto - fixees the problem. So......whew!!! - **AT LAST I have /dev/ttyUSB0** and so the connection mangler now works!!. THanks to all.....works much better than XP under virtualbox (which I keep just in case) Works Great.

I was able to install Windows Vista but I couldn't so much as find a single driver that would allow me to access the internet to download the rest of the drivers. You have saved me a LOT of frustration. Thank you so much.

After trying to save /sbin/modprobe option echo "0x1410 0x4400" > /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/option1/new_id A dialogue appears at the bottom of the terminal stating ‘recording.’ Nothing seems to happen after this. It remains in this state indefinitely (I have left it for hours) without closing. I can physically find the file with File Manager and can open it with ‘Text Editor’ but I am unable to save the change in this way. Its error is that I don’t have either enough space or write access. Is there something I am obviously overlooking? I have followed this instruction exacty.

After trying to save

A dialogue appears at the bottom of the terminal stating ‘recording.’
