Zaurus - pdaXrom / Installing Pdaxiiv2 On C7x0
« on: October 23, 2007, 01:30:27 pm »
I'm a long-time zaurus user with a few Zaurus models, and a lot of history with various ROM distributions, most recently an old OpenZaurus distribution, but I'm looking for something more developer-oriented and, well, alive.
I use the Zaurus as a notepad, basic PIM, and want to do more portable development on it (both targeting the Zaurus and the desktop).
pdaXrom (and pdaXii13/pdaXiiv2) look really good to me, but I've been searching here and at http://www.tyrannozaurus.com to find installation but I have a few questions:
* Is the pdaX* family a good route for me with a C7x0?
* With a c7x0, should I go for pdaXiiv2, or stick with an testing release of pdaXrom?
* Is the installation path for c7x0 still pdaXrom beta1, upgrade to pdaXii13, then upgrade to pdaXiiv2? Or can I start with a newer pdaXrom testing release and upgrade directly to pdaXiiv2?
* Would I be better off waiting a few months for pdaXrom 2 release (roadmap says December, but I know how my on-the-side development projects can be delayed...)
Thanks!
