- ||<rowbgcolor='#ff6633' :> Booting Linux on your handheld is equivalent of peforming a '''HARD''' reset[[BR]] - it will blank the RAM, and you will lose all data in it. So, '''before'''[[BR]] proceeding with any steps below (and '''each''' time you repeat it in the future,[[BR]] assuming you keep your valuable data in WinCE), you need to perform a '''COMPLETE'''[[BR]] backup of your handheld. ||
-
- Use standard iPaq Backup application preinstalled on your handheld. Make sure that you select all checkboxes in the tree. Make sure you backup to SD card. If you don't have SD card (you should!), make sure you copied backup archive from the handheld to your desktop via ActiveSync.
-
- When you finish with Linux, perform a hard reset and restore from the backup. That's how dual-boot works (the way to speed it up is to disable encryption and compression).
