Hi

I have started to install Familiar following the isntruction of
http://familiar.handhelds.org/familiar/releases/v0.4/install/H3600/install.h
tml

I have done every thing and I am stuck at the network setting after the
first boot.
1) I have done At the "boot>" prompt, type: boot
2) I see Linux startup, and numerous daemons execute. If all goes well, you
should be presented with a "login:" prompt.
3) At the login prompt, login in as root using rootme as the password.
4) I have run ipkg install_pending
5) I have executed rm /usr/lib/ipkg/pending/* to remove the leftover pending
packages files.

Now I have to configure the iPAQ for the network.
My PC is a Windows 98 PC with a serial and a USB input. I have one USB and
one Serial craddle (not a combo one but 2 different one). The PC has a
static IP address and I can ask for one for the iPAQ if necessary. I don't
have any PCMCIA extention.
What should I do ?

Please help me I am trying to get this work for more than a week now.

Thanks
