I had the same problem. You have to do the hardware reset or software =
reset and then when you see the OmniGo logo press c. It will ask you =
whether to discard all data. You have to press 'Y'. In this way you will =
restore all of the original system files (your autoexec.bat and =
config.sys inclusive), but yor data files will be deleted. Fortunately =
you had all data stored safely, I hope.
I installed the line 'omniswp i' in my autoexec.bat file and had exactly =
the same problem. But I did save all of my data files to the RAM disk =
before!
Good luck!

SOS !!!!!!!!!
Here is what I did. I don't have the serial cable to transfer omniswp =
on my OG=20
right now so I modified the AUTOEXEC.BAT and created GO.BAT files as =
mentioned
and kept the "omniswp i" and "omniswp r" lines REM-ed. Now, the machine =
is hung !!
I know I did a stupid thing but is there any way to bring this thing =
back to life ???
All I wanted to see was a DOS prompt ;P
Right now it shows HP Omnigo LOGO and thats it !!! :(
Hard Reboot by inserting a metal-pin in the back is also no use bcoz it =
is again=20
executing the same STUPID AUTOEXEC.BAT !!!!=20
Thanks,
Hitesh
