Three questions, may sound silly, but I cannot tell you how many times.....

1- CF is formatted fat16, NOT fat32?

2- Renamed files to zImage (NO extension) and initrd.bin?  (If done
under windows, it will hide extensions.

3- Power cord is plugged directly into the bottom of the Zaurus during
flash?
