confused - reflashing and my apps came back

[Anonymous]

I have a Sharp SL-5600. Originally used sharp 1.32 rom, and I installed further apps.

A few days ago I installed OZ, but it felt slow and unstable, so I elected to try Zynergy5600 instead which is more similar to sharp rom but has libopie etc built in.

To my surprise when I flashed this (together with the preemptive kernel) a lot of my old data presumably hanging around the /home filesystem returned

So in part this is cool, however some of my Qtopia icons point to apps that no longer exist in the rom, whereas other new apps which zynergy provides have no icon.

Now I can guess I need to start relinking the files back to the .rom directories.. what\'s the \"standard\" procedure here. Should I have zapped the entire filesystem first, if so how?

Per the instructions on the Zynergy5600 site (https://www.timekiller.org/zynergy/zynergy5600.htm)
....
12. When flash is finished Reset the zaurus again and enter the Maintenance Menu once more.
13. This time select 3. Format.
14. Confirm Format.
15. Done! The Zaurus should now be booting for the first time.
