Hello.

I need to restore Windows CE on the iPAQ device and I do everything according to
instructions on the http://handhelds.org/projects/wincerestoration.html, but
failed with the last step - restoring the last image block: flash_00000000.bin.
Downloading first three pieces completed successfully, but I got an error after
last one is downloaded. There is last part of my work's log:

------------------------

boot> set override 1
  setting param=override to value=1
boot> pflash 0x0 0x0 0
  addr=00000000
  len=00000000
  protect=00000000
boot> load flash 0x0
loading flash region flash

eraseSector error
  sectorAddress=00000000
  flashContents=EA00008B
  status=00AA00AA
erase error!
boot>

-----------------------

Fortunately the boot loader seems is not corrupted yet. I still can type and
launch commands. But I don't know how to solve this problem and do not want
experiment (I am afraid I break something) :-/ Any help is very appreciated.

Thank you,
Alex Vinnychuk.
