What is the OLPC processor? If it isn't an Intel x86 or clone then the
current linux binaries won't run. There are 2 equally important dimensions
to portbility: hardware and OS.

Has anybody been able to get J up and running on the OLPC?
I have tried and failed. Given that the OS is basically Fedora Core 7, I
installed the 32-bit Linux version in the flash file system. I probably
could have left it on a USB drive.
Invoking jconsole gives an "illegal instruction" error. I have spent very
little time investigating the problem, so it may be a trivial error. It
looks as though the correct libraries are present.
Best wishes,
John
