Title: Switching From Oz-opie To Oz-gpe
Post by: grog on December 18, 2004, 03:44:23 pm

Hi all. I currently have OZ-OPIE 3.5.2 installed on my SL-5600. Do I need to format after reflashing if I just want to switch to using OZ-GPE? thanks

This type of question would probably be better answered in the Open Zaurus Roms threads. I don't believe many users check the Development section regularly... I could be wrong?

However with regards to your question, It may not be necessary... but I do. Then I remove everything from  /home and start fresh. With a 5600 you often have stuff left in  /home from a previous rom, using the current flashing method.

ooops, sorry. Thought I was in the right forum. I was hoping I could get away with not having to blow everything away. I've got a lot of stuff working. Is there a way I can back up my whole current setup so I can just reflash it later to get back to where I am now? thks
