I\'ve got my SL-5600 using it just fine, and it works better on a 5500 because that\'s what the developer uses to test it.  It\'s a chroot environment and lets you run anything in the Debian ARM port :-)  I have specifically installed nbtscan, and it already had nmap, perl, SSH, tcpdump, and all those awesome security tools installed (I\'m using the big-v0.17 version).  It\'s recommended you use it with the Cacko/CROW ROM (http://www.schwag.org/~crow/).  Have fun

Another viable option, however, is OZ (www.openzaurus.org).  When I used it I installed the debian nbtscan .deb (ipkg install http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/...1.5.1-2_arm.deb may work, I forget).  The guy on irongeek (http://irongeek.com/i.php?submenu=zaurus/zaurusheader&page=zaurus/zaurusmain) has gotten some awesome security tools to run (Wellenreiter II  Kismet Zethereal  Ettercap  Ngrep  TCPDump nmap nemesis) and he provides the files and instructions.  You can do this without needing an SD or CF card like you need for zaurus-debian, although you don\'t get a full debian environment, which is pretty sweet.
