Needed files
An OpenZaurus image consists normally of these 3 files:
update.sh zImage.bin initrd.bin
SL-C1000 / SL-C3100: Before experimenting with OpenZaurus you should first create a
normal backup and additionally a NAND-backup (see page 28). So you have a
comfortable way back if you want to return to the SHARP Rom.
Copy the OpenZaurus files on a CF card and start the flashmenu (see page 21). Choose
option 4 Flash/Update and start the flash procedure.
Leave your Zaurus alone until OpenZaurus boots (disturbing a Zaurus while flashing a
Rom is not a good idea).
Back to the SHARP ROM
SL-C1000 / SL-C3100: To get back from OpenZaurus to the SHARP Rom you need to
do a restore of a NAND-Backup.
This is done in the Zaurus service menu. All steps are explained at page 33.
SL-C3000: As mentioned on page 28 there’s actually no practical way to backup the
SHARP ROM (ok, maybe if you own a CF card > 4GB and have lots of time) for a later
recovery.
