iPAQ Brick

I now have an iPAQ model H3635 Brick.

I first ran the installation of the Bootloader as specified in the "H3600 Handhelds.org Bootloader Installation Instructions" document. This proceedure loaded Bootldr v2.14.8.

After successfully loading the Bootloader I started installing the Familiar image as per the "Familiar v0.4 Installation Instructions" document. Everything went as discribbed except the actual numbers that were written to the FLASH while doing the installation. I attributed the number differances as a difference of the current update. After installing, I rebooted and the iPAQ quit responding.

Can you help me?

Below is a copy of my terminal screen as I performed the installation.

Thanks,
Tom Strike
