pdaXrom and gentoo for Z on 5500?
« on: October 24, 2004, 05:56:47 pm »
Well the title says it all really.  The pdaXrom site says "pdaXrom has been tested on Sharp Zaurus SL-C700/750/760/860 but is currently being ported to other architectures."

The G4Z page says G4Z is based on pdaXrom.

So will g4z work on an sl5500?

For that matter where do I download g4z? the links on its page seem to point to zaurus.spy.org, which seems to have been down for a while.

latest pdaXrom builder can create bootable images from SL-5000D / 5500 and live CD with devtools for x86. Currently that in early stage, so first release will in few weeks.

You can bet there are lot's of 5500 owners who are anxiously waiting to try the pdaXrom on their Z's  

Not to be pushy as we do appreciate all of your collective efforts to bring the 5500 users into the fold.   So is there any chance of a status update?

Thx

Hi,

Oh man...that looks so sweet... Like everybody else, very excited about this. Any word from the developers on a release date? *rubs hands in glee*

Also, Quake on Zaurus 5500? Man, I've gotta get that. The links here and here both seem to be broken - does anybody have a working link/copy?

Will Pdaxrom include quake by default...(obviously, user has to supply data files)...man, that would be so cool...finally, I'd have something to wipe those supercilious smirks off those iPaq users .

bye,
Victor
