Hello,

have installed bootldr 2.18.01 on my 3835 iPaq and am having some difficulty
reconfiguring the flash partitions. After boot loader installation, the
original set of partitions were:

bootldr
root
asset

Since there was no params partition, I believe the boot loader generated the
partition map by scanning flash. I then used the "partition delete" command
to remove root and used "partition define" to create a params partition.
After saving the partition table with "partition save", I reset the iPaq and
reexamined the partition table with "partition show". It looked like this:

bootldr
bootldr
root
params
asset
bootldr

It appears that there might be a conflict between the auto-generated
partition table and the partition table stored in the params partition. If
so, is there a way to prevent the boot loader from corrupting the partition
table? Perhaps someone has another idea as to what is causing this problem
and a potential solution.

Thanks,

Mike Morgan
