The first step is to port linux to the device, once that is done then IMHO getting pdaXrom should be a no brainer as there is really no implemntation dependent parts apart from a framebuffer storage and ram..

Hi

Thanks a lot for the advice and links. Actually, there's a crude linux port for it already, including X, so I think I won't have many problems.
I'm a little worried because this is the first time I do this kind of stuff with ARM.

[]s and again, thanks.

I'd like to second the vote for using Openembedded. OE is built specifically to generate images customised to machines and has a much more diverse range of packages than pdaX http://www.openembedded.org/.

Thanks for the tip. I'll check it out.

Hi.

This is my first post here. First of all, let me say I'm impressed by pdaXrom. It seens to be a very nice piece of work.
Let me explain my problem. I'm working on a digital inclusion project with will use a arm cpu, probably PXA270. As a development board for the prototipe, I'll use the phyCORE/PXA270. The idea is to create a desktop-like set of applications including gaim, abiword and gnumeric so pdaXrom fits like a glove but I'll have to make it run on this board.
I'm quite new on arm, despite quite experienced in embedded development. Is anyone there that used this board or could me give some tips about the problems I might find on this porting?

Thanks a lot!
