Hi every one,
this is my first mail and I know that my English is bad so
excuse me.
I have a NEC Mobilepro 780 with netBSD 3.1 on a 1 GB CF,
wonderful:
I can connect via ep0, mount a nfs partition and use
seamonkey thank to 
ssh -X.
Now I have bought a ROM  (the one of the Mobilepro 790)
which has a
newer window$ version (not very intresting) and (I read)
16MB of unusable
(on the Mobilepro 780) flash memory.
My answer is: anyone know how to access to that memory?
Thank you very much Giacomo

You probably need to look at

http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/hpcmips/

that is the netbsd port for PDA, or better at

http://www.handhelds.org

[at url http://www.handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/SupportedHandheldSummary you can find device and status], that is the best start point if you aim to work with linux on PDA.
Hope it helps you!

Bye

Thank you for your quick answer.
I just know that sites and my Mobilepro is just running
netbsd 3.1.
What I don't know is how to access the 16MB of flash memory
that must by 
on my new RAM (the one of a Mobilepro 790)
that are nor seen by win or bsd.
Thank you very much and again  I hope you excuse my
english.
Giacomo

I'm sorry for "RAM", I intended flashROM...
To better explain my hope may be these two links are good:

http://www.pdastreet.com/forums/archive/index.php/
t-35156.html

http://www.hpcnec.com/cgi-bin/simple
forum.cgi?fid=08&topic_id=1149598244

In my opinion the flashROM must exist  on the chip and, if
the rest of 
the hardware is really the same
between 780 and 790, I think that there must be some
jumper.
What 's your opinion?
Thank you very much Giacomo
