Title: installation problem with I3.3.5
Post by: Otto8998 on January 13, 2004, 11:38:07 am

Hi,
I\'m newbie, and I need to install a new rom on my zaurus 5600.
I followed all instructions to install a open zaurus 3.3.5 .
I saved zimage and initrd.bin on /mnt/cf (cf is new and never formatted. the file system is vfat).
I press c d and reset button together, and light email and battery begin to flash , they aren\'t solid ligth.  nothing is written and zaurus rebooting with the old rom.

Where Do I wrong?

You didn\'t inform yourself how to flash a Zaurus 5600. Press OK during Reboot.

Also, it\'s zImage, not zimage. Perhaps you made a typo when posting.

I have the problem where it writes the Rom onto the Zaurus but then during boot up it has the Sharp screen and thats it.  Oh and I have the SL 5500
