I am using stable, and the update ended in desaster: the ipaq hung while
configuring libgtk1.2, I interrupted and tried again. Configuring
libgtk1.2 lasted ca. 4 minutes, after that the same happened with
libXaw. ps showed that tar xf - was in D state. I rebooted, but the
system seems to be damaged - I cannot ssh to it (connection refused, but
network is up, ping over usbnet works), rxvt works, but neither fscrib
nor the keyboard works, so I cannot fix or debug it at the moment. I am
at home, the serial cable is at work and only have usb here.

I leave it as it is, tommorrow I can log in via serial console -
hopefully. Tell me if you need any more info for debugging.

Greetings,
Oliver
