Jornada 820

[Faré]

1- Mount your partition from your Linux PC (or from the bootimage,
after creating a /noautomount directory on the FAT partition).
2- edit the /etc/passwd and/or /etc/shadow of the partition to either
blank out the password field, or insert the contents from YOUR
/etc/passwd
3- sync ; umount
4- reboot your jornada

> Dear Faré, I don`t understand how I can run Linux on my j820.
> What I do:
> First I parted my 256CF to two partitions 16Mb - FAT and other - ext2,
> then I untarged TAR.bz2 to ext2 partition and copy to FAT hpcbootm.exe
> and j820.
> In WinCE I run hpcbootm.exe and j820 on kernel-image. When Jornada is
> booted, I see "login: ". I try login on root without password but OS
> write incorrect login, try again, or something that.
> Sory for my english, today I feel bad, because yerstoday I wery much drink :-)
> Do you can explain how I may run Linux on my Jornada820?
