SL-C3000 Support?

[ScottYelich]

Does OZ/OE work on the 3000?

It's not pdaX, it's not perfect -- but I'd take it over the sharp rom in a heartbeat.
OZ makes my 5600 useful.  You can run zdebian, etc... so the 3000 is useful,
even if your preferred rom isn't available for it yet.

Scott
ps: hell, even with sharp, if that was the only choice, I'd run zdebian! That alone
makes the Z worth it.

Hi! everybody!!

I'm interesting in pdaXrom or OZ rom for the Zaurus SL-C3000!!! The last post is date 8-Jan-2005... any new notice¿? any dancing?¿?

Thanks all...!!!

There was a post about this today on mobilenews.ne.jp; it seems someone has created a package of pdaxrom (rc8) for the C3000: available here

The packager notes, however, that this should be considered EXPERIMENTAL. Also, it seems that the packager had problems getting some of the softfloat things to compile, so the package may not be 100% complete.

The installation looks simple:
1. format a CF card to ext3, then extract the archive to the card. (apparently it can be installed on hdd3 as well, though I personally wouldn't recommend it).
2. replace /sbin/init with the provided init file (must mount / as rw to do so). The new init will provide a menu for choosing which ROM to boot.

Again note that this is experimental. I have not tested this personally (I don't have a C3000). Use at your own risk.

Short notes from my attempt this morning:

It didn't seem work off an SD card, and one of the special kernels (to get the full booting up sequence) is necessary as I couldn't even see what was wrong.

Does OZ/OE work on the 3000?

No, not yet. I think there are no serious issues left, but interest submitting the missing bits seems to have calmed down lately.

I'm going to try this and I'll post the results I get.  I'm using a 64MB PNY CF card.  Thanks for all the hard work guys!

Well, I guess I should have seen that coming.... 64MB CF card isn't quite big enough.  I'll have to get a bigger one and try it again.

I'm going to try this too!  I don't have my CF card with me but I will definitely be checking this out for fun ;-)

I've replaced my 860 with a 3000,  I prefer pdax over the Sharp rom.

I bought the 3000 from Shirt Pocket, and would prefer to backup the system before experimenting :-)

Has anyone got a breakdown of the Japanese service menu options in english or a url which explains all the options?

[euroclie]

You could try the English manual by TRISoft...

Yes excellent,  thanks.   Looks like backup is a non starter then.

now that C3000 is underway- anything on C1000?

[T-RuX]

the C1000 is equal to C3000 only what the C1k hasn't HD  the model is exactily

Be Happy, happy !!!

Okay a quick status update.. We stille haven't got a Ck model but hopefully within a month or so i will have saved enough so i can buy one. Then the final testing can begin. The good thing is the SL6000 i borrowed from a means that we have a almost 100% working 6000 version.
