hi, I had installed Familiar linux on an iPaq h3635 (same as h3600 but with CF sleeve). the thing is, the device's battery was old, so I didn't care about if it would brick. As an experiment, installing linux on a portable device was a thrilling experience, and learned a lot in the way... I even used it as a "sideshow" device with my Ubuntu desktop PC (USB networking made me learn a lot more) now some friend got me a new battery for my device and I started college... so I restored to WinCE The iPaq had a Wm2002 and the image supplied by the link on the restore howto page is wm2000... I found the update but it seems I can't install it it may be the bootloader which is freaking the HP update app... but I've lost the backed up "saved_bootldr.gz" file. I've already have BootBlaster on my CF card and is working, but I couldn't find the default WinCE bootloader to restore it do you have any spare file you could share with me? because the linux bootloader makes my winCE hard-reset even when I soft-reset my device Thanks Guille _______________________________________________ Open Source Software for Compaq iPAQ Handhelds. iPAQ mailing list [email protected] https://handhelds.org/mailman/listinfo/ipaq irc://irc.openprojects.net #ipaq
