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
