Mandrake Linux on PDA

After the annonce of the future port of Lycoris Linux on most PDA based on Intel pxa processor, it\'s now  the turn of Mandrake Linux to annonce that they will provide an ARM version of their famous distribution. It\'s not the first attempt from the Mandrake company to enter the Linux ARM market as a distribution provider. They already have a great experience building Bastille Linux and OpenRouter, a project that aims to develop a high-performance and user-friendly router/firewall and wireless access point based on open hardware specifications and Open Source software.

I saw nothing referring to the Zaurus. The linuxdevices.com pages are quite old now.  Lycoris looks interesting but Opie just didn\'t do it for me.

Busybox are currently having their site hacked by c0d3p03t for lax security, or spite, or immature stupidity.
Left Linux and Linux PDAs... sorry, got boring.  Switched to Mac.
