Hello,

since I am still having trouble with the current kernel, I decided
to publish the stuff I already have:

    http://www.peter.gerwinski.de/hdg1-20020529.tar.gz (1372 kB)
    http://www.peter.gerwinski.de/hdg2-20020530.tar.gz (71224 kB)

To play with it and see GNU/Linux/X11 booting on the Jornada
710/720, please create two partitions on a Compact Flash card,
e.g. /dev/hdg1 with ~8MB and /dev/hdg2 occupying the rest. Format
/dev/hdg1 such that WinCE can access it (e.g. VFAT) and /dev/hdg2 as
ext3 (or ext2). To boot Linux, simply run `hpcboot.exe' from WinCE.
You will get an X11 session as `root' with icewm plus another `root'
session on the serial line (152000 bps). In X11, press `Alt+Shift+X'
or `Alt+Shift+Y' for an `rxvt'.

(I named my own Jornada "sojourner" and have chosen an appropriate
background picture. PLEASE DO NOT give all your Jornadas the same
name! IMO each one must have its own personality! :-)

Have fun,

    Peter
