New test images boots over my ipaq h2200, and bug #1677 is now closed, howewer 
i had to disable the S10checkroot.sh startup as it wanted to run fsck over a 
readwrite mounted filesystem, claiming it's very dangerous and asking the 
user for a confirmation. This should be patched in some manner. I tried to 
change the fs to reiserfs, rebuilding the kernel, but i was not lucky. To 
disable the bootsplash i readed the S00psplash script and patched startup.txt 
of haret, but to have a console over the frame buffer i ran make menuconfig 
on the kernel dir, changed the config and after that removed the kernel 
compile stamp, and runned again bitbake amstrong-gpe-image again.
Wath's the official/legacy method to give a different configuration to the 
kernel?
And now some other issues about gpe-image:
* the usb0-eth device is not present, is it normal?
* keyboard, fonts are bigger then rects and sometimes i have to hold down the 
pen to use it, if not the keyboard acts as i pressed the key and a backspace
* i was not able to compile a custom gpe-image (i used the prereleased for 
tests), the build failed on package freetype with:
./configure: line 2943: i686-pc-linux-gnu: command not found
configure: error: native C compiler is not working
* the last, may i use some kind of emulator before deploying the fs image to 
the ipaq?

Hoping i'm not boring you
Best Regards
