Hi,
Has there been any progress in making the new padded images available?
Any progress on a bootloader for the CL4?
Ciao,
Christof

Hi Alex

The bootldr is not able to boot WinCE on SIMpad.
Bootldr uses a different memory map than the original bootloader.

With the new jffs2 images it is not necessary to have a new
bootloader. The original should do, because the new images initialize
the whole jffs2 section. I don't kmow if the new images are available
on opensimpad already.
