It looks like Zipit uses an Xscale which is armv5, so it would work, as
far as I can tell.

Zipit uses ARM720T (ARMv4T), the same as my GP2X primary processor (GP2X has a
940T co-processor)

So this must be a newer version?

Even this version with 32MB RAM isn't suitable.  I don't even think
Slackware on x86 can really run reliably in 32MB of RAM.

So I'm not exactly concerned about this device :)

Dunno.  I went off the entry in the
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARM_architecture
Which says ARM720T.  must be wrong.

I have a 386 40mhz AMD with a 387 coprocessor (ISA SCSI 9gb Seagate / 32MB Ram - huge for the day) in storage. Would love to test that theory... But another year maybe ;-)
