| 01:16.22 | bluedevil | I'll throw it out there anyway in case somebody sees it |
| 01:17.07 | bluedevil | I've got an ipaq 4300.... similiar to the 2200 model. I've followed the instructions for booting from the SD card. I've got the card formatted, zImage, file system, and haret.exe (and haret-wrapper) installed |
| 01:17.33 | bluedevil | when I execute haret.exe, I get the thermometer graphic, the screen goes blank, but then power just cuts off and nothing else happens |
| 01:17.40 | bluedevil | is this a known thing? any suggestions? |
| 01:21.58 | bluedevil | I have a hunch that my startup.txt might not be quite correct. If anyone has one they knows works on a 4300, that would be great. |

| 13:34.19 | dmc_ | is anyone active here? |
| 13:35.42 | Davo_Dinkum | Dude just ask your question. |
| 13:36.50 | dmc_ | ok, thanks |
| 13:37.06 | dmc_ | I'll stick to this channel, since you're in both |
| 13:37.23 | Davo_Dinkum | Whatever floats your boat. |
| 13:37.24 | dmc_ | I've got familiar 0.8.4 on an ipaq 4300 |
| 13:37.59 | dmc_ | when I run haret.exe, I get the penguin graphic, the thermo. fills up, the screen goes black, but power just cuts out and nothing else happens after that |
| 13:38.24 | dmc_ | also I've got tty defined in startup.txt, but there is no boot text displayed |
| 13:38.47 | dmc_ | so, you know, just wondering if this is a known thing |
| 13:39.24 | Davo_Dinkum | No idea. |
| 13:39.35 | dmc_ | also, once upon a time I had the SD card plugged into the ipaq, but mounted on my linux laptop. Now I've forgotten how I did it. |
| 13:39.40 | Davo_Dinkum | Did the flashing and installation process go smoothly? |
| 13:40.02 | dmc_ | I haven't flashed it. |
| 13:40.09 | dmc_ | booting from the card doesn't require it, I think |
| 13:40.21 | dmc_ | also, holding down power-contacts-reset does nothing |
| 13:40.36 | dmc_ | supposedly that will get you into the stage one bootloader, but I got no response from the unit by doing that |
| 13:43.55 | Davo_Dinkum | Did you check the hardware status page before you bought this? It isn't officially supported yet. |
| 13:44.44 | Davo_Dinkum | I really wouldn't know how to fix your problem though, sorry. |
| 13:44.52 | dmc_ | yes I did |
| 13:44.58 | dmc_ | actually I've had it for about a year |
| 13:45.06 | dmc_ | just got it from somebody else for fee, thought I'd tinker with it |
| 13:45.15 | Davo_Dinkum | fee? |
| 13:45.20 | Davo_Dinkum | Looks like a pretty good PDA though. |
| 13:45.24 | dmc_ | I know the 2200 (which the 4300 is just a beefier version) wasn't well supported |
| 13:45.26 | dmc_ | "free" |
| 13:46.12 | Davo_Dinkum | I chose my model based on how well familiar ran on it. |
| 13:46.42 | dmc_ | well, yeah. but this is what I got. |
| 13:46.45 | Davo_Dinkum | mzb seems pretty knowledgable. Pity s/he isn't here. |
| 13:46.48 | dmc_ | according to this site, it should work: |
| 13:46.49 | dmc_ | http://www.handhelds.org/projects/h2200.html |
| 13:47.31 | dmc_ | right now I'm working with the sd-card method. I'd be willing to try the LAB method if I could figure out how to get into the damn bootloader |
| 13:47.42 | dmc_ | the instructions say "power-contacts-reset", but that does nothing |
| 13:47.55 | dmc_ | probably something I'm doing wrong, but it's pretty straightforward |
| 13:48.24 | dmc_ | yeah, it is a pretty good PDA. I'd just much rather be running linux on it |
| 13:48.31 | Davo_Dinkum | Maybe try pressing them in a different order. |
| 13:48.33 | dmc_ | wifi, bluetooth, 512MB card |
| 13:48.46 | dmc_ | maybe. I assumed they meant pressing them all at once |
| 13:48.58 | dmc_ | think it might be sequential? |
| 13:49.12 | Davo_Dinkum | Worth a try. |
| 13:49.16 | dmc_ | yeah |
| 13:49.32 | Davo_Dinkum | mzb is over in #handhelds.org. Not responding though. |
| 13:50.10 | Davo_Dinkum | Did you do a hard reset? |
| 13:50.55 | Davo_Dinkum | dmc_: ? |
| 13:51.29 | dmc_ | yes |
| 13:51.32 | dmc_ | sorry |
| 13:51.48 | dmc_ | I can't figure out how to do a hard reset |
| 13:51.55 | dmc_ | I think that's the power-contact-reset combo |
| 13:51.57 | dmc_ | which isn't working |
| 13:52.50 | Davo_Dinkum | Pull the battery out or something (if it's removable). |
| 13:53.05 | Davo_Dinkum | There might be a reset switch underneath the battery. |
| 13:53.23 | dmc_ | oh cool |
| 13:53.33 | Davo_Dinkum | Just guessing. |
| 13:54.12 | dmc_ | nope |
| 13:54.15 | dmc_ | not that I can see |
| 13:54.33 | dmc_ | I'm looking for the manual on line now |
| 13:54.35 | Davo_Dinkum | Not even a pinhole sized one? |
| 13:54.48 | dmc_ | no |
| 13:54.54 | dmc_ | I thought I saw one, but it was just a screw |
| 13:55.01 | Davo_Dinkum | The HP website should have the manual. |
| 13:55.06 | dmc_ | yeah |
| 13:55.11 | dmc_ | that's where I am |
| 13:55.19 | dmc_ | got sidetracked by aluminum cases :) |
| 13:55.30 | Davo_Dinkum | Their site navigation sucks though. |
| 13:56.19 | dmc_ | brb |
| 13:58.14 | dmc_ | back |
| 13:59.39 | dmc_ | haven't found what I'm looking for yet, but this site looks cool: |
| 13:59.41 | dmc_ | http://repair4pda.org/disassembly_hp_compaq.html |
| 14:08.19 | dmc_ | user manual == useless |
| 14:08.56 | Davo_Dinkum | Yeah what's new. |
| 14:08.57 | Davo_Dinkum | ? |
| 14:10.31 | Davo_Dinkum | What is it? A PDF? |
| 14:14.09 | dmc_ | yeah |
| 14:14.17 | dmc_ | I might be making headway in the forum archives though |
| 14:14.39 | Davo_Dinkum | Do a text search on the PDF file for "reset" or something. |
| 14:19.47 | dmc_ | I found the instructions to do a full reset |
| 14:20.14 | Davo_Dinkum | On the forum? |
| 14:20.22 | dmc_ | yes |
| 14:20.24 | Davo_Dinkum | A full or hard reset? |
| 14:20.30 | dmc_ | just a full reset |
| 14:20.34 | dmc_ | I don't think it's the same |
| 14:20.44 | Davo_Dinkum | No, neither do I. |
| 14:21.16 | Davo_Dinkum | Full=wipe all user data, Hard=completely power cycle device. |
| 14:21.24 | dmc_ | these are the instructions I'm trying to follow: |
| 14:21.28 | dmc_ | # |
| 14:21.28 | dmc_ | Back up all your PocketPC data using iPAQ Backup. |
| 14:21.28 | dmc_ | # |
| 14:21.28 | dmc_ | Insert a CF card (> 32M) that you don't mind erasing. The rescue bootloader overwrites whatever is on the card, including any partition table and filesystems. |
| 14:21.28 | dmc_ | # |
| 14:21.29 | dmc_ | Hook up a serial or USB cable. You'll use this to talk to the rescue bootloader using a terminal program like tip, minicom, or HyperTerminal. If you are using a USB cable under Windows then you might want to use [WWW]Multi-Port/USB TTY. In order for it to be able to communicate with the WCEUSBSH port you have to kill the wcescomm porcess. |
| 14:21.33 | dmc_ | # |
| 14:21.35 | dmc_ | Press Contacts-Power-Reset to get into the rescue bootloader. The iPAQ's screen should display some text, and your terminal program should display something like: |
| 14:22.12 | Davo_Dinkum | Good luck. I wouldn't know what to do here. |
| 14:22.22 | dmc_ | that bit about hooking up a serial or usb cable is part of what's confusing me. I can put the ipaq in the cradle and connect via usb, but then there's no way to get at the reset button |
| 14:22.24 | dmc_ | yeah |
| 14:22.27 | dmc_ | well, thanks for trying |
| 14:24.05 | Davo_Dinkum | It says USB *cable*, not cradle, yes? |
| 14:24.42 | Davo_Dinkum | If it says cable then you need a cable! |
| 14:26.06 | Davo_Dinkum | dmc_: Seeya. |
