5x00 General discussions / Some Question about Zynergy5600 1.1 ROM

Hi 1st of all great user group!
I \'m Pocket PC user before and decide to try new OS and get into Linux.
I just got a Sl 5600 last Friday and haven\'t sleep much this weekend, the more time i play with the Z the more stuff i discovered, so far it has been a great PDA ( one thing i wish to change is the screen, kind of outdated).

I have couple Questions need a help :
1. I update my rom to sharprom 1.32,  then flashed to Zynergy5600 1.1(which is great rom Love it) then I add the \"Special Kernel  \" 1.3, I used the Zynergy5600 1.1 updater.sh with Special Kernel  \"zImage.bin\" file (which have to rename as \"zImage\") to flashed, in the end it says update suecssful ask me reset, which i did and also i did  format as according the Zynergy5600 1.1 steps.
Are these steps correct?
Do i need do format with Special Kernel  \" 1.3?
Do i have the \"Special Kernel \" 1.3 in my Z now ? ( haven\'t feel any speed different)

2.I do get my sandisk wifi card worked with Zynergy out of box, email, ftp, opera No problem  
But I notice that Zynergy can’t install any software use GUI its crash as the web site described, I try to us konsole to install it still don\'t do it
can any one show some example line i can use in terminal?
lets say I want to install \" kino2_0.22_arm.ipk\" which located in CF card

Do I just type

\"bash-2.05$ ipkg kino2_0.22_arm.ipk\"
And if I wan to uninstall something,  which command line is for uninstall?

and also I try to find my cpu infor
using the line:

\"bash-2.05$ /proc/cpuinfo\"
terminal respond as\" bash: /proc/cpuinfo: Permission denied\"

If I use \"bash-2.05$ cat/proc/cpuinfo\"
terminal respone as\" bash: /proc/cpuinfo: No such file or directory\"

I really want to keep using Zynergy5600 1.1 ROM and know very little about Linux
Please help

Thank you
