I doubt ipkg-link would work out-of-box if you install it anywhere other than root.

AFAIK on Tosa, pdaXrom repartitioned the 64M flash to 57M / and 7M /home, while Angstrom keeps relatively the same Sharp ROM layout (i.e. ~32M / and ~32 /home). Certainly we can change the layout in updater.sh. But I need to ask more experienced dev's (esp. hrw) opinion on this.
