Talking Answer

The OS consists of a few prc files. just hot-sync them and run the main one. It will start the installation where you choose a few questions. It then builds the main db which includes the OBS (Object Based System). It loads and runs. Note that this is only on the first run. Every time the PalmOS device soft-resets, the OS reinitializes itself to continue just where it left off. However going into or exiting the OS while the device is on is fast. This because there are minimal parts to unload/load. Note that NO dynamic memory is used while the OS is not the active application (from the PalmOS point of view). (:

Uninstall is also easy. Just choose Uninstall when the OS is running... and delete the main prc file. That's all... (:
