> I've had a good try of roman's gpe image it works great. Sound is really unstable
though - not usable although i'm sure it'll improve. wifi is great. If anybody wants
a hand getting it working then just stop by #rx3715 and i'll give you a hand (og01)

Cool, I'll log into the channel when i do my install when i get some free time later
this week.

The install instructions on the wiki say to put the files onto the filestore as SD
cards aren't supported for loading linux from. But i got the feeling when i last went
to install a mini distro that someone told me that HaRET and the kernel could be put
on the SD card as well now. (would make things easier keeping it in one place if
thats so, hope someone can confirm that either way)

I think last time (can tell it's been a while) that i partitioned my SD card badly as
i made a ext and a fat partition on it but i think pocketpc couldn't find see the fat
partition. I suspect that fat has to be the first partition and maybe i did it the
wrong way round.

I wish my memory was a bit better at times, just forgotten all that.

I noticed that the mini-distro roman made has HaRET version 0.3.6 but that the wiki
now shows the current version as 0.3.8. Is there any reason for using 0.3.6 in
particular or can i try out the latest version to see if it still works with the rx3715?

Looking forward to your feed back and trying out the new kernel image.
Thanks for your help,

Daniel
