Hi,

Just wanted to double check to confirm if I'm screwed or not...lol.

A few months ago I installed Linux onto my Ipaq 3950. However since the SD card is not supported, I want to restore it with the back up (wince_image.gz). I've tried twice and both times the process aborts after the calculated and read crc's don't match.

Am I missing some step or is there any other option I have to restore PocketPC? Or am I sol?

Here's the cut'n paste from HyperTerminal:

ready for YMODEM transfer...

00EF8857 bytes loaded to A0000400
img_size is not a multiple of 4 -- are we sure that's OK?
Looks like a gzipped image, let's verify it...

.calc crc32 is 0x053B4271
read crc32 is 0xA416D688

verifyGZipImage: calculated CRC = 0x053B4271
verifyGZipImage: read CRC = 0xA416D688
invalid gzip image. Sorry...

Thanks,
Brian
