 Hi
 I recently got given a Dell axim x51v that does the same job as my 770
 but im thinking of selling them both and getting an iPhone. I wanna
 hack it to run debian yet im not thinking its possible. I've gone a
 bit debian crazy atm lol. I know maemo is based on debian yet i want
 to know if it is possible just 2 run debian on it? If i can i might
 not sell it. I don't like the axim think it has more compatibility
 issues than the 770. Any recommendations would be useful thanks in
 advance.

Not sure, really, as I have not tried it.  It installs to the memory card
and you have to reboot.  I am *guessing* that it creates a boot loader to
boot either Maemo from the onboard memory, or the Debian install in the mem
card.

But this looks far easier than the last install Debian on your tablet I
saw, which was a bit more involved and had you go through the create a boot
loader steps manually.

 Kevin,

 does that install an instance of Debian LInux as a virtual machine on
 OS2008 or does it in fact replace OS2008 altogether?
