The OpenZaurus flash method doesn't overwrite the angel bootloader nor the 
flashing program. Only the kernel and initrd are flashed to rom. On the other 
hand, if you're using the OSPACK method of flashing (Sharp's method), then if 
you screw up the flash it's possible you've nuked the bootloader and flashing 
program.

Don't bother going for 3.2 anyway as it's ridiculously out of date - go for 
3.3.6-pre and grab the gcc 2.9x compat packages (can't remember where to get 
them from off the top of my head)

Also, take a look at the Zaurus Software Index for any packages that you might 
need: http://www.killefiz.de/zaurus
