Linux on iPaq

Stalemate · April 13th, 2004, 11:59 PM

I'm seriously considering Familiar on an iPaq I'm expecting any day now. I chose that flavour of Linux mostly because it seemed the most stable and most "current" to install on a H3660 model.

Has anyone else tried a Linux distro on a handheld?

Please let me know your thoughts and impressions.

I'm guessing this is new for most of you out there too.

I just received the iPaq at home, said my wife at lunch, so until I can afford to get an 802.11b CF card for it in a couple of weeks I'll have some time to "experiment".

I could make a blog for this.
