Zaurus - Hardware discussion / SL-C31000 / Strange switch

« on: February 01, 2020, 06:21:08 pm »

Hello All!

Another question regarding my new SL-C3100.
Please have a look at the device:
 

I never saw such a switch on a Zaurus before.
What might be the purpose of this switch?
Any ideas?

Zaurus - Hardware discussion / SL-C3100 Zaurus HDD Check

« on: February 01, 2020, 05:51:59 pm »

Hello All!

Recently I bought a SL-C3100 from Japan on eBay.
According to the description the internal 4GB drive is faulty and the device is not booting up.
After inserting a new battery and a reset it's back to life now.
It also came witch an additional 4GB Microdrive.
 

To be sure the internal drive is faulty, I entered "D+M" setup and started "HDD Check".
Does anybody know, what the "BANK_X" values mean?
Maybe it is the reliability of the sectors?
BTW: Test of the HDD resulted "OK!"

Rgds,
Stefan

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Angstom / kexecboot

« on: January 31, 2020, 09:40:17 pm »

Hi All,

I do have a SL-C3200 with Angstom / kexecboot.
It boots a pdaxii13 V5.4.9 and 2 x Debian.
Is it save to switch to 4.4.18 kexexcboot without the risc of losing the systems?

Rgds,
Stefan
