Linux, is it possible? - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

Hi
I have a VITEL TSM400 Pocket PC. It run's OK using XDA developers rom, but I'm a Linux user and I would like to port my XDA to Linux. The question is obvious, is it possible?. If the answer is yes, where could I get it?.

Gotta ask the obvious...
Why?

Well.. Linux geeks want to port Linux to everything..
Heck, even Lego isn't safe!
But seriously, I'd allso like to see Linux on my Himalaya..
Just for testing..
Just for the fun of it..
---- EDIT ----
Just do some searching, and you'll find some links..
Yes, Linux has been ported to a ARM based device..
Yes, it will run on a Himalaya..
No, I can't tell you that it will do anything but run/boot..
No, I don't have all the info.. SEARCH, READ, BE WISE!
---- Second edit ----
Ok, you lazy people:
Clicky

linux

Hi
I was wondering if there has been any progress on linux for the HTC wizard at all?
i was speaking to somebody who had an ipaq running linux and the great thing was that it was being booted from the SD card!
is anything like this possible with the wizard? he mentioned something about 'haret'
thanx

damn! i didnt think of that!
i had actually used the search. you try searching for wizard linux or any combination and let me know if you come up with anything concrete like the things i asked.....is there a build available!?!and by available i mean, a link to download and guide to install

[Q] Linux on the Iconia?

I apologize in advance if there already is a thread on this, but I couldn't find anything. Any way to possibly run Linux off of a USB stick or dual boot or anything? I saw the thread about natively running it but I was just curious as to whether or not there is a way to run both? (Android and Linux)
Yes, there's a thread on it, in the dev section.
This thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1158260
Does it talk about Linux on USB? Or is it just referring to installing it instead of the android os?

There are several step by step guides.no.apk. or complete done for you. Zip file.it does require Linux knowledge. Im not comfy with the procedure when it gets easier I might give it a try.but my tab does as I need for now.

That's the point. Go read and learn something instead of being lazy. The scripts being posted earlier were screwing up people's phones. I'll also add the wiki to the OP.

Is there a linux version of this? I've had trouble with Wine and I'd rather not risk running the Windows .exe on Linux.

The .exe of what? Have you read the thread? If you did, you'd know the RUU or the HTC sync exe is not a required step.
adb works on linux without drivers.
Updates this thread, please unpin it and pin the thread this thread links to. Thanks.

Creating a Rom and Kernel.

So as everyone has probably noticed alot of people have opted-out of the X10 community, developers and consumers alike.
I have this phone for another year so I would like to learn how to create rom's and kernels so I can contribute back to those who have help fed my flash addiction.
Where do I start??
Thanks in advance for the input,
Vader

I would also like to learn how to make my own ROM and kernels to contribute to the site and phone.
It won't come to you automatically guys .
Read through the forum , Read Read & Read .
Experiment things .. You'll get lots of headaches , But it'll be worth it .
& Then ask for help , There should be a issue to solve right .
Thanks Oodie. I didn't know there was an entire section of the forum dedicated to this as well.
Nathvader check this out.
Oh well would you look at that! Ok everybody I should have ICS port and kernel up and running by tomorrow...
hehe jk will start small thanks for the help Oodie love your roms btw!
Also good luck Dragon Outlaw King!

I believe you can develop in whatever environment/OS you want, but you will need a working knowledge of linux to be able to work on kernels especially and ROMs too (someone correct me if I'm wrong).

For kernel stuff I think you have to be on Linux, because of the required dependencies and libraries.

First advice: have a 64-bit linux distro (i.e. Ubuntu).
If use don't dispose with a linux computer, any other advice is meaningless.

VM is not the best way to do so
Strive to install Ubuntu on your PC first, is not that hard
