Re: Angstrom Opie 1.2.3 testing] - HX4700 flash question

Hi all,

Afore I flash this onto my hx4700 could someone tell me what the 
difference is between these two images

* Angstrom-opie-image-glibc-ipk-2007.12-r2-hx4700.rootfs-summary.jffs2
* Angstrom-opie-image-glibc-ipk-2007.12-r2-hx4700.rootfs.jffs2 <http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/unstable/autobuild/hx4700/Angstrom-opie-image-glibc-ipk-2007.12-r2-hx4700.rootfs.jffs2>

Should the contents of the reflash.ctl ought to be like this,

Old version (this is the one I used for Familiar)
reflash.ctl:
hx4700-kernel zImage-2.6.15-hh2-ipaq-pxa270 - kernel
hx4700-root bootopie-v0.8.4-ipaq-pxa270.jffs2 - root-opie

New version
reflash.ctl:
Angstrom-opie-image-glibc-ipk-2007.12-r2-hx4700.rootfs.jffs2 <http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/unstable/autobuild/hx4700/Angstrom-opie-image-glibc-ipk-2007.12-r2-hx4700.rootfs.jffs2>
- root-opie

The current installation contains Familiar 0.8.n & Opie

regards, Simon.
