How to download CE files?

Hello,

I just create a platform,I boot CEPC by using boot disk, I choose 3. Then I
use Ethernet to download CE image, everything OK, I can run CE from CEPC.
But if I restart CEPC without boot disk, my CEPC hard disk has nothing but
my old files(I had DOS in CEPC hard disk).

Did I do anything wrong or I miss some settings?How can I download real CE
files to CEPC hard disk?

Thank you!!!

Normally, you load WinCE image to RAM only, without touching the HDD.
Everytime you restart you need to repeat download process in PB.
This is how Ethernet bootloader work in my understanding...

Thank you for the answer. But how can I load files to CEPC local hard
drive, so I can boot CEPC without a floppy boot disk?

Thank you!

I would look for a bootloader with an option to load os image
from an ATA-FAT disk. I know there are bootloaders to load from
Compact Flash, which is very similar to HDD but I do not know
if there is one for CEPC... I never worked long time with CEPC.
I always loaded os image to pc RAM. Maybe others will chime in...

If you built the ATAPI hard drive driver and the command console "cmd.exe"
into your image, just run it on your target.
Then, just copy the nk.bin from the "\release" directory into your hard
drive "Hard disk".

And nk.bin alone let him boot Windows CE from hdd?
Interesting... I was expecting he needs a bootloader.

I did build the ATAPI and cmd.exe into image, but how can I copy nk.bin to
CEPC hard drive? My CE in RAM now .
Sorry,I'm really new to CE.

Open the explorer and open the icon called "Release". It's pointing back to
the release directory on your build PC. Highlight nk.bin and press <ctrl-c>
to copy the file. Go back up in explorer and open the icon called "Hard
Disk". Once there, press <ctrl-v> to paste it there. It will now copy the
nk.bin file from your PC's release directory to the underlying storage on
your CE machine.
