Hi Sebastien, I am just trying to install debian on the Zaurus. There is a wiki of the procedure, but it has a lot of mistakes in it. This wiki: http://www.oesf.org/index.php?title=Q16:_I_am_using_a_Cxx0_or_C1000._How_can_I_install_Debian_EABI_to_my_SD_card%3F I improved and corrected all I found, but still working on it. The wiki seems to be rather old. At the moment, I try to get network access, but the kernel (yes, Angstrom latest kernel 2.6.24 is running well!), does not see my card. This is still a configuration problems. The solutions cannot be used, as there are still i.e. mistakes, like dead links. Feedback will be sent, if required.
