very confused about xda booting etc, pls help

[hungarian]

Hi everybody,

for years I was playing working and doing other weird things with my computer, I finaly was able to get svcd working and I was doing many how to files for other people like newbies and other human beings :wink:

So, some weeks ago I got to know about the xda, well, I bought one, cause I love this boys toys and I also need this kind of stuff professionaly, while traveling alot.

I was reading now for days forth and back here and in some other forums, ending up completly confused and not sure what I should do.
Please dont be angry with me for asking stupid question, I promisse I also will answer some as soon as I know for sure.

Here is the case:

I have an xda, I dont know which radio version (how to I get to know the basic informations about my xda inside?

I have some very strange looking stuff on that machine (bought it used over ebay)

I would like to remove all that crab and set the machine up fresh.

I know about the kitchens but could not make the roman one working.

I have an sd card plus reader writer (the card is an 128mb) the writer is from hama germany

I will try to make it short, is there no realy newby how to about how and what to do with the xda? I will write one in german and even in english with some help for the english version, but I need to have a start somewhere.

Please help, I dont mind the work and will be greatful for any help.

Thanks, this is a great place where people help each other.

Good initiative ... I believe many will be greatful for you :)

I have an xda, I dont know which radio version (how to I get to know the basic informations about my xda inside?

Start -> Settings -> System Tab -> Device information

I have some very strange looking stuff on that machine (bought it used over ebay)

I would like to remove all that crab and set the machine up fresh.

Start -> Settings -> System Tab -> Remove programs

or if there is nothing valuable, do a hard reset (the tiny hole to the right of the XDA connector ... marked with a red battery icon)
