3333cd1faaSuwe.Sh DESCRIPTION
3433cd1faaSuweWindows\ CE machines with
3533cd1faaSuwe.Tn SuperH
360adee5f2SwizCPUs use the
3733cd1faaSuwe.Xr hpcboot 8
3833cd1faaSuweprogram to boot
3933cd1faaSuwe.Nx .
4033cd1faaSuweOnce running,
4133cd1faaSuwe.Nx
4233cd1faaSuwecan reboot itself if
4333cd1faaSuwe.Xr kloader 4
4433cd1faaSuweis configured in the kernel.

4633cd1faaSuwe.\"
4733cd1faaSuweUnfortunately,
4833cd1faaSuwe.Nx
4933cd1faaSuwecan't reboot itself at power-up or after crashes.
5033cd1faaSuweThe machine will go through the cold reset and boot into Windows\ CE.
5133cd1faaSuweYou will have to restart
5233cd1faaSuwe.Nx
5333cd1faaSuwemanually using
5433cd1faaSuwe.Xr hpcboot 8 .
5533cd1faaSuwe.Pp
5633cd1faaSuweOnce
5733cd1faaSuwe.Nx
5833cd1faaSuwestarts, an automatic consistency check of the file systems will be
5933cd1faaSuweperformed, and unless this fails, the system will resume multi-user
6033cd1faaSuweoperations.
6133cd1faaSuwe.\"
6233cd1faaSuwe.Ss Cold starts
6333cd1faaSuwe.\"
640adee5f2SwizOn cold reset Windows\ CE handheld machines attempt to boot the Windows\ CE
6533cd1faaSuweoperating system from the boot ROM.
6633cd1faaSuweThe boot ROM is usually not rewritable, so you cannot erase or damage
6733cd1faaSuweWindows\ CE image.
6833cd1faaSuwe.Pp
6933cd1faaSuweYou can't boot
7033cd1faaSuwe.Nx
7133cd1faaSuwedirectly, skipping Windows\ CE.
7233cd1faaSuweThe
7333cd1faaSuwe.Nx
7433cd1faaSuwebootloader,
7533cd1faaSuwe.Xr hpcboot 8 ,
7633cd1faaSuweis provided as a Windows\ CE application program instead.
7733cd1faaSuweThough the bootloader is an application program, it blows the entire
7833cd1faaSuwerunning Windows\ CE, its data, and its settings away from RAM (but not
7933cd1faaSuweROM!\&) when the kernel boots successfully.
8033cd1faaSuweIf
8133cd1faaSuwe.Nx
82*cf5fdbc3Speteris halted the machine will go through the cold reset and will reboot
8333cd1faaSuweinto Windows\ CE.

10433cd1faaSuweThere is no general way to launch the bootloader automatically, as
10533cd1faaSuweonly a few Windows\ CE machines provide an
10633cd1faaSuwe.Dq auto run
10733cd1faaSuwemechanism.
