Hi, We really want to get started with linux at our Dell Axim X50v machines, here at a research institute. But I can't get it running, even a little bit. Could someone please provide some step-by-step instruction on how to get this running? And which files and version to use, etc.
We don't have a serial cable or CF cards for the moment, so if it can be done with USB networking and SD cards that would be great, otherwise we'll order/make the needed stuff. Here is what I've tried: - Downloaded the files from the downloads section of the wiki: http://handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/DellAximX50Downloads - Downloaded the changed haret (haret_uart.exe) from http://axim.narcotize.com/ - Downloaded the latest used kernel from the mailing list: http://axim.narcotize.com/files/kernel26_x30_working_0.1.tar.gz - Put the files into the "Internal Storage" of the axim x50v (in a "linux" directory, if that matters) - Tried running haret: It says "Detected CPU family: Unknown". I can connect with it using telnet - I changed the default.txt file to load the latest downloaded kernel, and pressed the Run button The haret terminal says: Physical kernel address: a8008000 Preloader physical/virtual address: ab080000 Physical initrd address: a8408000 Goodbye cruel world ... After that, it stops. No penguin with on the pocket pc or nothing. It just hangs. I need to reset the device, and seemingly it automatically hard resets (so it has actually done something with the ram). Is this behaviour normal? What should I do? I really want to help, but I must get it somewhat running first...
