sorry, some newbie questions, but including the answers into your document
would definitely make "end users" more confident in following the tasks:

could you point out, why you reduce the wince_image from 48KB down to 32KB? is
it necessary or just for speedup?
does the boot loader accept .gz files _and_ uncompressed files?
why do I have to type "boot wince" and not only "boot" when finished?
what's that "asset_image.gz" for, which was created by bootblaster?

BTW, to avoid even more confusion, here are the exact file names created by my
bootblaster-2.18 on a H55xx:
asset_image.gz saved_bootldr.bin saved_bootldr.gz wince_image.gz

so, mainly its not "wince_image.bin.gz" and "bootldr.bin", like stated in your
document... this may sound picky, but it makes people feel more save :)

regards,

Mike
