Do I need to repeat this on another thread?
CE 2 does not have all of the functions (or something like that ) that CE 2.1 and 3 have. Because of that, the bootloader would have to be completely rewritten to work. As I have said before: It is possible, but someone has to do it.
lol, if I had knowledge of what is stuffing it up and what the difference is between ce 2 and 2.1 then I'd give it a shot... |

| It also added certain functions to CE.
Somewhere on this Linux/Unix forum is the list of the functions missing, or something similar. Search the forum yourself, I do not want to. |

| WinCE 2.0 can use pbsdboot.exe. In that case, aren't you putting this guy off un-necessarily? |

| No, not really. It does not work properly. Give me a successful boot in txt format, and we will see. |

No boot transcript, but from the detailed setup info, I would concur that it *does* run on wince2.0.

NetBSD folks have been running it since 2000 and from this thread, its on wince1.0 and above!
