Seems I followed (and even worse, downloaded and installed) an old tutorial, and installed a version of CRL/OOH Arm Bootloader (wich is v2.16.19). after rebooting, my penguin appears, but only 2 options are displayed (Calendar for Serial Bootldr Console) and Q(or Wait) for Boot Linux. none of that 2 options make anything, except change the speed of the green led blinking. notes: * the Install process went flawlessly, no error messages, no BSOD whatsoever * I followed the instructions of that particular tutorial * The PPC was with power from AC adaptor plugged on a UPS plug (so no possibility of crash by energy stuff) I don't own and couldn't find/buy a Serial cable my question is: what can I do? should I throw it away? I loved playing NFS High stakes and all kind of games there... plz help --001517473434eb290004789b4528 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable hi, I have an old iPaq h3600 that I love.
