[SOLVED] iPaq H5550 kernel type

Hi,

I'm trying to set up an embedded system for a device like a iPaq Pocket PC H5550. I'm using multistrap to create a armel filesystem. I would like to know what kind of kernel to download. Below are what I imagine to be my options.

  linux-image-2.6.26-2-versatile 2.6.26-27
  linux-image-2.6.26-2-orion5x 2.6.26-27
  linux-image-2.6.26-2-ixp4xx 2.6.26-27
  linux-image-2.6.26-2-iop32x 2.6.26-27

My question is, which one do I choose? I have a linux distro called 'familiar' on there (which I intend to replace) and the present kernel, a zImage, is labled as 'zImage-2.4.19-rmk6-pxa1-hh41.1' This means nothing to me, maybe someone can point out for me what I should be taking from the name. Thanks.

Why don't you compile the kernel yourself based on the hardware that you have?

I wanted to try a pre-compiled image first. I do think I will have to compile my own at some time, but it takes a lot of time and I thought I'd be able to get started faster this way. Do none of the selections seem to fit an iPaq H5550??

out of these, which should I use?

The iPAQ H5550 uses an Intel PXA255 CPU, als9o known as XScale, so I would try number 35.

thanks.
