Unfortunately,
|
2004-04-03 08:13:49 +04:00
|
|
|
.Nx
|
|
|
|
|
can't reboot itself at power-up or after crashes.
|
|
|
|
|
The machine will go through the cold reset and boot into Windows\ CE.
|
|
|
|
|
You will have to restart
|
|
|
|
|
.Nx
|
|
|
|
|
manually using
|
|
|
|
|
.Xr hpcboot 8 .

.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
Once
|
|
|
|
|
.Nx
|
|
|
|
|
starts, an automatic consistency check of the file systems will be
|
|
|
|
|
performed, and unless this fails, the system will resume multi-user
|
|
|
|
|
operations.

On cold reset Windows\ CE handheld machines attempt to boot the Windows\ CE
|
2004-04-03 08:13:49 +04:00
|
|
|
operating system from the boot ROM.
|
|
|
|
|
The boot ROM is usually not rewritable, so you cannot erase or damage
|
|
|
|
|
Windows\ CE image.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
You can't boot
|
|
|
|
|
.Nx
|
|
|
|
|
directly, skipping Windows\ CE.
|
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
|
.Nx
|
|
|
|
|
bootloader,
|
|
|
|
|
.Xr hpcboot 8 ,
|
|
|
|
|
is provided as a Windows\ CE application program instead.
|
|
|
|
|
Though the bootloader is an application program, it blows the entire
|
|
|
|
|
running Windows\ CE, its data, and its settings away from RAM (but not
|
|
|
|
|
ROM!\&) when the kernel boots successfully.
|
|
|
|
|
If
|
|
|
|
|
.Nx
|
|
|
|
|
is halted the machine will go throught the cold reset and will reboot
|
|
|
|
|
into Windows\ CE.

|
|
|
|
|
There is no general way to launch the bootloader automatically, as
|
|
|
|
|
only a few Windows\ CE machines provide an
|
|
|
|
|
.Dq auto run
|
|
|
|
|
mechanism.
