Because Angstrom is more or less Debian (with patches applied to make it more suitable for Zaurus and much better package granularity)To use Debian armel you need Angstrom kernel, xserver, ts driver, zaurusd, keymap, tweaks already in Angstrom, etc. Your work on bringing debian to zaurus is much appreciated, but please consider contributing some of your findings to Angstrom.

(Disclaimer: no affiliation at all with OE/Angstrom - also I don't want to start a flame war, just my humble opinion) you're totally right! and you know i was an angstrom pioneer on my c3000 too! and even when i went to debian, "angstrom" has always been in my signature (in fact until yonggun thew his 2.6.24 kernel one week ago!) ! however i tried latest angstrom some weeks ago and i felt into ipk install problems i never had before when trying angstrom... i first said to myself that i had to continue because there's always an angstrom support with bugs.openembedded but i had so many problems that i resigned and went back to debian armel... i don't think there should be a fight between debian and angstrom : both are arm eabi it's true debian has taken some work from angstrom, specially zaurus customization, but everyone in debian forum knows about that. my initial post was just a suggestion about trying debian, not a flame at all
