[iPAQ] v0.15 : Flash & ppp

Hi,

I just installed v0.15, upgrading from v0.14 (initial install)...

I find 18834 1k-blocks of "disk" space with 13 blocks allocated on my
/dev/flash6 when mounted. I thought all Ipaqs have 16 MB Flash memory,
but I hear there are some 32MB models out there. My question is if there
is any way to determine how much flash memory a particular Ipaq has,
since I´m afraid of corrupting my bootloader when writing to flash.

Regarding ppp: while all other modules needed to run the xdemo and
sound, etc. are loaded correctly (not like my 0.14 install, I had to
load them manually) the ppp-modules still need to be inserted by hand to
get a ppp-connection up.

Is there a way of modifying the cramfs images?
