Can anyone confirm that this is the correct sequence of steps before I
create a brick! I want to remove savaJe and reinstall Pocket PC2002 on a
3760. I've read as much as I can on both this site and savaje.com and am
still a bit unsure of the exact procedure as there seems to be some
conflicting information.
Here's what I think I need to do.
Boot> Load bootldr
Send bootldr-2.18.39.bin rom the PC via Xmodem, (is this the best loader
to use or is one of the older ones better?)
Reboot the IPAQ
My Ipaq has partitions bootldr,params,kernel,rt.jar,savaJe and apps.
As I don't have a root partition do I need to execute
Boot> partition reset
Followed by
Boot> load root
Send wince_image.gz via Xmodem
I've read elsewhere that the Xmodem command wraps around after 8megs, is
this still a problem with the newer bootloaders as my image file is
13megs?
Some sites quote the use of the command "set ymodem 1" to get around the
8 meg limit and get a faster transfer, is this only for direct load
flash commands, using uncompressed files or can it be used with load
root?
Or will the load root command create the partition and load the file
itself without the partition reset step?
Any help would be gratefully appreciated
Jonathan
