Hmm... After thinking for a while, i begin to agree with you guys.

Then again, perhaps at least a planned hierarchy (e.g. networking > wifi cf card > supported models) will be nice, at least better than a long list of unorganized questions filling up the pages. Clearing them up and relocating them may waste more time than planning beforehand... or not?

A wiki is only as good as the quality of the articles on it : some planning is always helpful.

Bear in mind that given everything will probably change in 4 weeks when we've all got more experience, there's only so much planning you can do.

Yeah. I am gonna do one more big addition to the guide tonight, and then (if it goes well) I will post the whole thing to the OESF wiki, so that everyone can edit it.

Since there are quite a bit of discussion and confusion before and (hopefully less) after posting the draft guide, perhaps we still need to use a bit more caution, especially for those fresh green newbies. I am more concerned about them and I always think I am one of them so I admit I am indeed a bit faint-hearted too.

jpmatrix, do you still have space for the packages?

no problemo! i'm a little busy these days but from thursday i'll be "available"
so i'll open my ftp for you to upload and i'll put them on my web site!

from today, my ftp is up if you want to put some files

pm me if you want login/password, people who know the openbsd accound can use it

i think i'll try to re-install all from scratch as i installed yesterday some libts things and now my stylus is not working anymore...anyway i think it's better to restart from scratch as i've played a lot with files here and there  moreover sound is definitely impossible to have on my C3000....

for information i've tried to set up bluetooth for dialup networking but i failed to start the dialup; i don't know why actually; perhaps some bluetooth mystery  but as soon as i've reinstalled all i'll try again.

What wiki are you referring to?  I can't find it from https://www.oesf.org/index.php?title=Main_Page
Zaurus:  SL C3100
ROM:  eabi debian/sid
