Hi,
Im trying to restore PPC2003 to my HP5450,
this is what I've done:
My bootloader is version 2.21.12
First I have the upgrade CD from HP to upgrade from PPC2002 to PPC2003.
I ran the utility from the cdrom, which extracted the *.nbf files to a temp area.
This area I copied and took the image for PPC2003 which I guessed was
called KERNEL_PPC03_20021.nbf. On this image I ran the command
dd bs=32 skip=1 if=KERNEL_PPC03_20021.nbf of=ce.img
so I ran:
dd bs=1024 skip=256 if=ce.img of=PPC2003.bin
and
dd bs=1024 count=256 if=ce.img of=parrot.bin
I copied the PPC2003.bin to a compact flash card and with a serial connection
issued the command
copy hda1:/pc2003.bin root
This resulted in the ipaq first erasing the rom area for root, but when it started to
reprogram the rom it complained that it was not empty:
the flash sector needs to be erased first!
flashAddress=02F7F3C0
flashWordOffset=003DFCF0
flashContents=EBFF3EBE
error while copying to flash!
My partitions are defined:
npartitions=00000002
bootldr
base: 00000000
size: 00040000
end: 00040000
flags: 00000002
root
base: 00040000
size: 01FC0000
end: 02000000
flags: 00000018
I guess these need to be redefined, but how?
Regards René Geers
