hi,

i had familiar v0.5 till recently. i had installed it with instructions
in the install guide and everything was fine till i recently decided to
downgrade to v0.4.

since i had v2.16.19 bootloader as listed in v0.5 install guide,
already installed, i directly proceeded with install instructions in v0.4
guide from after installing the bootloader. however this is what i got

>booting jffs2...
>booting boot/zImage from partition >root<
>find_inode failed for name=boot
>Failed to find inode
>loaded file of size = 0x00000000 at location 0xC0008000
>kernel partition base C0008000
>kernel_magic=5F5282B5
>kernel_region_words[9]=E88EBFBF
>Unrecognized kernel image

during install process everything went smooth except that when i issued

"params save" i got only
bootldr: set linuxargs "notintrd root=/dev/mtdblock/4 init=/linuxrc
console = ttySA0" and nothing more like

> programming flash....erasing etc......... as listed in

http://familiar.handhelds.org/familiar/releases/v0.4/install/H3600/install.html

md5 checksums are all fine. do i really need to downgrade the bootloader
too or is there something i'm missing? is there some incompatibility with
bootloader for v0.5 and older familiar versions?

thanks in advance
- mukesh
