Dual booting: OPIE prepared?

Hello developpers,

in the rare instructions found in the web on dual booting (wince / 
familiar) for the iPAQ (in my case: 3870), in the first lines there is a 
statement that reads something like: 
"Make sure that familiar has been compiled with the following switches: 
....."
The switches seem to include/enable  "initrd" which probably is the 
ramdisk needed to dual boot.

Q1:  Could somebody please tell me if the switches needed for dual booting 
have been set in the latest familiar/Opie release (0.8.4?)

Most current iPAQs come with an integrated SD-Card slot.
Q2: Would it be possible to boot [Familiar|WinCE|WhateverOS] from the 
SD-Card?
Q3: How would I proceed to succeed?

Best regards
André Kegel
