HELP.

I installed v0.8.4-rc2 & Opie on a H5550. Everything
seems to be fine, except for when I go to perform
a shutdown, the meter on the screen indicates a 100%
completion, but everything else is frozen. I cannot do
anything except unplug the battery. In order to get it
working again, I had to do a reset and connect to a serial
cable then run boot to start Linux again. That was the first
time....

The second time, I decided to perform another shutdown to
make sure what I experienced was real. It happened again.
The iPAQ was frozen after I clicked on shutdown.
I went through the reset and connected to the serial cable,
booted at the console prompt again. This time, the only
thing shown on the iPAQ screen was the Penguin icon and
some ........
I let it sit there for a long time then decided to turn it
off/unplug the battery and try it again.

After that I could not reset, nor access the console via the
serial or anything at all. The iPAQ seems to be dead. There
isn't a response no matter what I do to it.

Any advice?

Thanks,

Tom
