I just wanted to ask why is it devs have tried getting all the desktop OS to run in qemu but I haven't heard of anyone testing windows xp mobile embedded? Why? I would imagine it would be easier to run as it's the mobile version of XP.
Windows XP Embedded has now morphed into Windows Embedded Standard, but this is only available to run on x86 or x64 platforms.
The version that will run on ARM devices is Windows Embedded Compact 7, which is the continuation of WinMo 6.5
To answer the original question, it ain't gonna work. Not on a phone device, that is.

My institute has a genuine copy of Platform Builder for Windows CE 5.0 given by Microsoft. Is it possible to develop a 5.0 ROM for Magician using that?
No.
You need a BSP (Board Support Package) from the OEM that contains all the drivers and settings for a specific device.
Plus, there is a different Platform Builder for Windows CE and Windows Mobile.
Thank you very much. But I'd like to ask how do they realize Linux on Magician.

via reverse engeneering.
You can do the same - reverse engeneer the ROM, recreate BSP for magician and compile Windows CE 5.0, or even Windows CE 6.0 for your device. It would take 1-2 years for this to do.
You would be unable to compile Windows Mobile 5.0 because you don't have WinMobile adaptation kit. MS provides it to OEMs only.
And you should know the difference between CE and WM.
Anyone see or know of any development of a basic version of Ubuntu or other Linux distro on a Windows Mobile device? I see people putting Windows 98 on their PPCs, but why not Linux? Isn't there a mobile version of Ubuntu specifically targeting MIDs? Couldn't that be used as a base?
Search my friend, there is Xanadux.

Can we install Windows CE on our A500? Windows CE is compatible with ARM based processor architectures. So I think thats may be a way to install it on our tablet. Can someone help to make this happen?
Hi,
there are two Skype versions for Windows 8.1 / RT out there:
Windows 8.1: skype_3.1.0.1016
Windows RT: skype_3.1.0.1021
Obviously the Windows 8.1 version doesn't work anymore, while the Windows RT version seems to work fine. Is there any way to get the Windows RT version working on Windows 8.1?
Regards,
