For Sale / Wanted / Selling Zaurus Battery

« on: June 30, 2005, 02:17:17 pm »

HI!

For answering the mainaspects of the mails, i got:

-Are you really shipping worldwide?
Yes! Every Battery is 25 Euro + 6 Euro shipping!

-How may I beleave you?
You don't have to.  But I sold very much Batterys in Germany (zportal.info), and everybody was happy!
Another way is ebay. I am selling them there too. (http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=38927&item=5779981588&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW)

-how do I pay the battery?
I think, the easyest way is bank to bank transfer.
Or maybe paypal.

Grusz, Ludwig

General Discussion / Oddly, My Sd Card Is Funky....

« on: April 15, 2005, 05:00:00 pm »

Ok, so since I can't sync with my desktop here at work (novell, havent bothered getting into anything there just yet), I was going to copy some ipk's over via sd.  My dazzle 10 in one card reader just wont write to the card! My CF card works fine, but the SD keeps saying its write protected - which it isn't.  Works fine in the Z.  Any ideas?

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Flashing Troubles... 5500 + 3.5.3

Considering the rather long list of problems on the 5500, i won't be installing this.

It wasn't a problem with OZ.  PICNIC.  Problem In Chair, Not In Computer.  Since overcoming my simple yet blatant stupidity, I have stopped playing with it.... very happy to be out of the Sharp rom again.

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Flashing Troubles... 5500 + 3.5.3

Card is fine, Sharp logo comes up because the kernel (zImage) hasn't flashed correctly.

Probably because for the collie (5500/5000D) machines, it has to be called zImage (no .bin extension).

If renaming doesn't help it (and I reckon it will), chack the md5sums of the files too.

Thanks for pointing out the simple mistake, it was driving me nuts

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Flashing Troubles... 5500 + 3.5.3

« on: April 14, 2005, 03:34:51 pm »

Hey everyone... having a little bit of a problem flashing my SL-5500...

I put the initrd.bin and zImage.bin (opie + 48/16) on my cf card, a lexar 4x 128mb card.  Popped it in my Zaurus, reset + c + d, and both lights come on solid.  Good so far.  However, its only doing that for 2-3 minutes before the lights go out - I'm pretty damn sure, considering what I've read also, that it should take 5+ minutes to  flash.  So anyway, I reset, close the cover, and start it up, and the Sharp logo comes up. Thats it.

I've tried another cf card (which happens to be the same brand/model), different roms, and so on.  I'm 99% sure this is the card I used to flash it WAAAAYYY back when, about 2yrs ago or so.

Anyone have any ideas?

If you're thinking that card is the problem, any ideas on a cheapo? I'll stop at CompUSA real quick and pick up a 16 or a 32mb card if its pretty competent for flashing, and you seem reasonably sure thats the issue.

Thanks
