Hi all,

I have not yet installed linux on my hx4700, but I plan to.  It ran quite
well on an old h3670.  I should be able to back up my WinCE 2003 hx4700 rom
for our friend below, but it might not be for a few days -- it just depends
on when I'll have a few spare minutes this weekend.

I don't have a place to host it, however.  If anybody does, please let me
know and I'll FTP it.

-Richard

Shame on me, I'm going to restore PocketPC.

I have bootldr 1.2.1 on hx4700, and familiar 0.8.4-rc2.3.

I tried to reflash it from a WinCE image I did when installing Linux. Hope
it's a correct image.
After several attempts to reflash from SD the machine stopped to boot into
reflash utility on iTask+Contacts. Maybe I did something wrong, I don't
remember.
Maybe I did something wrong when backing up WinCE. Sadly, I couldn't find a
WinCE for 4700 image on web. It's also absent on
http://handhelds.org/download/feeds/wince/ .

So I cannot reflash it via SD card + cable. I even cannot upgrade
bootloader.

I also couldn't reflash it via CF card. I boot till I can select a WinCE
image file with iTask (I tried both gzipped and raw), and then screen
becomes white and backlighed.

Linux is still there :)

The iTask and Contacts buttons work in hardware sense.

A pity, I still cannot use Linux. The show-stoppers are problems with sound
volume management and way too bad page formatting in opie-reader for CHM
files. Touchpad cursor keys is the second problem.

Thank you.
