[iPAQ] Ipaq doesn't respont to input from terminal emulator

Greetings folks,

I am the proud new owner of an H3650 running Linux Package .16

Installation went smoothly without a hitch.

I hope someone would answer a (hopefully) simple question for me. I have
perused the list archives and don't see anything similar (and would
prefer to save a few hours digging for the answer myself, call me lazy)

Anyhow, somewhere along the line, the iPaq stopped responding to input
from the terminal. I think I logged in on the console maybe once or
twice, but I can't login on console now. The behaviour is observed using
both Hyperterm as well as minicom.

I do get output displayed on the terminal though. I can watch the whole
bootup sequence, but have no way of interrupting it to get to the boot
ldr, and can't login on console.

Perhaps I have power-cycled the thing incorrectly...maybe something
simple like the getty configuration on the handheld....my Linux is
rusty, as I have been doing WinCE and destop Windows for 9 months.

all help appreciated!
