Dear developers, with great interest I read your message of running debian on freerunner.
According to this, I asked myself, if there might be an easy way to install debian on a Sharp Zaurus SL-C1000. I googled, but I only found some homebrew images and ways of install with very oold kernels (or japanese environments and so on). I hope, that the knowledge of "installing debian on freerunner" might be easyly transferred to be able to install debian on the Zaurus machine. The Zaurus got a strong-arm cpu, as well as the freerunner. Maybe it might be much more easy to build a kernel and the required content on the sd-card ? The main problem, IMO is to create the kernel. It must be in the flashable format (at the moment I am using angstrom-distribution). If a kernel can be flashed, you need the rest of the content (the "initrd") which must be put onto the sd-card. A file in tgz-style should do it (can be unpacked onto the sd-card using a cardreader). Are there efforts at the moment to get debian in an easy way(!) on the Zaurus-series ? I am no coder, but feel free to ask for help (i.e. testing and feedback) Regards Hans -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
