Hello,

I'm having trouble restoring WinCE on my iPAQ H3600. I followed the
instructions on "Restoring Windows CE from the Compaq iPAQ update".
Everything went well, except i can't boot wince:

boot> boot wince
booting wince...
Disabling LCD controller
000040
00688008

.. and then nothing happens, then screen remains blank :(

boot> ver
Compaq OHH BootLoader, Rev 2-18-1 [BIG_KERNEL] [MD5] [MONO]

I suspect my problems has something to do with my bootloader params [2]. The
first linux i installed on it was Familiar v0.4 [3]. That old bootloader
required you to set some params, which apparently aren't neccesary for the
latest revision.

Now what do i do? am i even on the right track here?
Do you need more info?

Thanks
Mikael
