minicom doesn't seems to be very easy to use, try to use the
hyperterminal of windows, it works fine.
I'm currently installing linux on my h5450, after resetting it with the
joypad tricking, the iPaq stays at the hp ipaq splash screen, it's good
! now connect it to the serial port of your PC (if it isn't already
done) launch hyperterminal with the right settings and hit somes spaces
and enters, if the boot prompt doesn't appear, press the calendars
button and then hit somes spaces and enters, the boot prompt should
appear now.
