hi, I have an old iPaq h3600 that I love. 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
