I'm very interested in trying Angstrom on my Zaurus SL6000 (tosa). However, I rely on this machine as a day-to-day PIM Currently, I'm using OZ 3.5.4.1, with altboot and the OZ installation on an SD card. Is it possible to install Angstrom on a different SD memory card, using altboot to run the Angstrom code from the SD card, without reflashing the Zaurus? This would allow me to test Angstrom, provide feedback for the development process, yet easily switch back to my OZ3.5.4.1 distro in order to access my calender (KOPI), password storage (zsafe), etc. Thanks, Mark
I am currently doing something like that with my poodle. I have a custom 2.6.17 kernel that changes the location of / from flash to SD and use that for my daily usage. I also have a second SD Card with Custom Angstrom kernels, again modified to boot from SD. In flash I have a console-image with kexec-tools installed. The kernels are stored on /boot of the respective SD cards. To boot the card, I just kexec -l the kernel and run kexec -e to boot. I hope this helps, Henry
