Ram Disk Rescue approach not booting Linux

Hi,
 
I have recently got hold of an h2200 series iPaq with the intention of
installing Linux on it. Before attempting to replace bootloaders, etc, (I am
working from Windows host) I thought I would follow the Ram Disk Rescue
approach as documented here:
http://handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/RamdiskRescue
 
I downloaded the recommended files (via firefox to Windows filesystem) and
copied them to a (new, Kingston, Type I, 1GB) CF card inserted into the iPaq
using ActiveSync in the following structure:
 
/linux/
 rescue/
    ramdisk-rescue-0.6.4.rootfs.ext2.gz
    custom.txt
    zImage-2.6.15-hh2-h2200-20061028015932
    haret-0.3.8.exe
    startup.txt
    image/
        bootgpe-v0.8.4-h2200.tar
 
All of the above files being downloaded from the links on the above page (I
have only tried this with the GPE GUI).
 
I successfully ran haret and booted into Ramdisk Rescue.
 
I installed linux onto the same Cf card.
 
The partition resizing operations reported successful.
 
After about 50 mins the filesystem expansion reported successful and
demanded a hard reset,
 
I then used the stylus to rest the iPaq using the recessed reset button at
the back (I assume this is what is meant by a hard reset).
 
I then used File Explorer to navigate to the /linux directory on the CF card
and ran the copy of haret that could now be found in that directory (not the
copy in /linux/rescue). Also in that directory were a copy of startup.txt
and zImage.
 
I get the penguin and then the penguin with bloodshot eyes and then the iPaq
screen goes blank (is still backlit - so not simply off!) and remains so
until the battery dies or I reset the device again.
 
I attach the RR-syslog.gz file created in /linux/rescue on the CF card
(presumably from the initial boot to Ramdisk Rescue).
 
Any suggestions?
