iPAQ and "Missing Op' System"
Image Trouble?

Hi All,

I've managed to get the IA-1 to boot from the CF with a win98 command prompt.
(Thanks keith721,... your experience and documentation are priceless!!)
I've used DOLLY to move the image file(s) from the CF to the on board CF with no luck.
I say file(s) because I've tried 3 different images with no luck.

I get the message "Missing Operating System" on the screen.
If I plug in the CF it boots fine to win98 prompt.

Any ideas?
Thanks,

Forever-

Okay,..
So it seems I am having trouble loading the image onto the on board CF.
I have succedded in either completely trashing it or I'm making progress here...
I used the part -d 1 command line (after I loaded part.exe onto the ext. CF) and managed to get things cleaned up. (I think)
I can now boot on the internal CF to a WIN98 dos prompt.
Going to try a couple other ideas for the image load.

Any ideas welcome.
