Hi Anurag,
> 1. What exactly is homefs.jffs2 ?
It's the image of the /home filesystem - empty by default, I believe. In
Familiar, /home is mounted on a different MTD block than /.

I'm not sure about this one; I don't believe it's necessary for
installing Linux (I didn't need it).

Replace zImage with your version, but I'd make sure you get a recent
version of the OPIE image too so that the modules contained in it aren't
so out of date that they're incompatible with the fresh kernel image.
After you've booted, I'd copy the compiled modules from the kernel
sources directory to your iPaq.

Not one that I can find; I just figured it out by doing it...
Once you have Linux installed on it, if you could let me know if you're
able to use the mixer to control your iPaq's volume, I'd appreciate it.
I'm trying to figure out why my volume control's not working...
Cheers,
Paul
