    • Used the 'dd' command to copy the complete image from this file back to the SanDisk 4GB CF card.
  • Put the SanDisk CF card into your LD.
  • Hard-reset or just powered on?
Did I miss any steps? Can you share any more details?


Hard reset not powered on as when I powered on it entered a reset loop. I am guessing this could be to do with the different numbers of sectors on the two devices so after a hard reset the palm os was able to format the disk space in its preferred manner. I found it more reliable to use the instructions on hackndev.com as I tried both methods.
