Re: USB should work now

Hi Guys!

For those who only have the USB cradle, here's something that you can
try by yourselves, at last

   1. Put the iPAQ on the cradle and connect its USB cradle to your
      GNU/Linux computer.
   2. Boot Linux with HaRET using the below files:
          * zImage:
            http://michaelo.free.fr/pda/h2210/starterkit/zImage_usb_mar3
          * initrd:
            http://michaelo.free.fr/pda/h2210/starterkit/initrd_usb_mar3
          * startup.txt:
            http://michaelo.free.fr/pda/h2210/starterkit/startup.txt
   3. Try over and over again until your get the red thermometer. Once
      this happens, after 10-20 seconds, you should get something like
      this on the PC console:
      Mar 3 12:02:13 localhost kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 2,
      frame# 314
      Mar 3 12:02:13 localhost kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device
      02:0a.0-1 address 5
      Mar 3 12:02:13 localhost kernel: usb0: unregister usbnet
      usb-02:0a.0-1, Linux Device
      Mar 3 12:02:13 localhost devlabel: devlabel service started/restarted
   4. On the GNU/Linux host:
> ifconfig usb0 192.168.0.202
> route add 192.168.0.201 dev usb0
> ping 192.168.0.201
      It should work as it does for me!

Of course, this may vary a little bit from one GNU/Linux distribution to
the other. Mine is Fedora Core 1.

Next to come: ssh access and something displayed on the screen.

Has anyone ever ran Linux on anything smaller?
