Re: Linexec for german users Re: [jornada] Linux on CF card (Jornada 720)

Yuusei,
The linexec-j720-de-notest.exe worked OK in my brazillian Jornada 710, and
looking at the executable I think it should work with the german WinCE name
conventions too.
Is there any source code change beyond the add of the
load_boot("\\Speicherkarte\\params.txt");
?

The executables seens to have considerable size differences:

linexec-j720-de-notest.exe 13824
linexec-j720.exe 14848

thanx,
rafael diniz
