Has anyone been sucessfull in booting linux on the
ipaq off of a ramdisk? I'm terrified of flashing my
ipaq, for fear I will end up with a 500$ paperweight.
For those of us with some type of extra storage,
microdrive, large flashcard or Iomega Clik, I imagine
this would be much safer. Boot linux kernel into
ramdisk, load driver, mount drive, free-up some ram.
Anyone tried this? Is there a bootloader?
What about netbsd? I've heard there was netbsd for
the ipaq, but havn't seen it yet.
One more q, I know the Iomega Clik drive works under
linux, but has anyone worked on a driver for wince?
That way a bootloader could almost work like loadlin,
and not even use a ramdisk... humm.
