I spent an hour or so yesterday afternoon trying various different versions of haret (the windows pocket pc 2003 startup screen/touch screen calibration get very tedious quite quickly) the results were: Every version of haret I tried (0.3.6, a few from 0.4 and 0.5.0, 0.5.2) all booted the really old kernel I found (thats about 950kb large 2.6.12 which boots into an initrd image and thats it). I tried replacing the kernel zImage with that of a later kernel, the last one ported by the last maintainer of the port (2.6.21-hh9) none of the haret versions booted the initrd image and all resulted in the device restarting without any kernel messages appearing on the screen, with 2 exceptions the 0.4.9-pre version (that I can't remember where I got it from possibly the broken link to the last maintainers files) and the 0.3.7-rx1950 haret loader from the rx1950 port. > It could be, but it seems odd.

I'll look into this in more depth and send the log files as well when I get home (currently in my lunch break). I may also see if the current rx1950 maintainer knows whats different about there haret loader than the standard releases. Thanks for your suggestions, I hope to get back to you soon with more information.
