Re: intimate and 2.20.4 bootldr

Gaël,

        I've only seen my iPAQ do this once... It happened just after I'd made some modifications to the PARAMS file... I reset the iPAQ and it booted fine the next time...
        I suspec the init= bit isn't getting passed properly, so it's just starting init.. which in turn starts the login-at-console prompt...

The bit where the bootloader is trying to load the params and initrd file looks a bit strange...

find_file_in_dir: INITp"ŸÁd"ŸÁTê
   attr=00000010
   first_cluster=00000002
   n_bytes=00000000
find_file_in_dir: INITp"ŸÁd"ŸÁTê

I don't get that on my iPAQ...

Maybe try reformatting the FAT partition?

I don't really have any other ideas right now.
