More doubts about familar installation on hp Ipaq 114

Doubts are based on this document:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HimalayaLinuxBooting
1)
> "No hardware modification or flashing of the device is necessary and afterwards you can just continue using it with PocketPC."

I understand that Windows Mobile 6.0 will not removed after all this
howto is followed step by step.
Am I right?

> "It will need a hard reset so all data will be lost (so backup if you need that data!)."

What data is refering to? All the user data or is it the Windows Mobile
6.0 (or any other OS) also removed?

2)
> "Backup any data on your PocketPC environment."

Is there any webpage with an example on how to backup data from PocketPC
environment (both data and OS if possible?

3)
> "Install the following files on your PocketPC filesystem
> (if you put it on an SD card it will be preserved
> and you can start it directly from it):"

what does it mean?

3a) When I boot my PDA I can choose whatever to boot from inside the PDA
or from the SD card and if I boot from the SD card then Linux boots.

3b) It is preserved so that in the next reboot from Windows Mobile 6.0 I
select my SD card icon, I open it and I double click on the haret.exe file.

4)
> "The Linux kernel image. A recent version can be downloaded directly as zImage-2.6.3
> / zImage-2.6.12, or you can compile it yourself

The proposed zImage-2.6.3 and zImage-2.6.12 kernels are prepared for
which architectures, processors?
Are they ready for Marwell PXA310 processor?

5)
> "# An InitRD image. A matching version to the kernel image above is initrd-2.6.3.gz / initrd-2.6.12.gz"

If I am entitled to build a custom kernel for PXA310 (Not sure about
that... please reply to my last email) will I have to build also a
custom initrd? Any guides on this subject?

6)

> bootlinux"

If I check: Haret Wiki Webpage (
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HaRET )
it says that
> The machine type is already correctly specified for the Himalaya device
so I ask myself what is the machine type
"set MTYPE ???????????"
for Hp Ipaq 114 or even Hp Ipaq 100 series? Any webpage with a machine
type list?

Thank you for all your possible answers.
