Linux is running on the 5 but not 5MX. You want a flash card for it. You also
want to think what your intended use is - the speed on those kind of devices
is not going to lend itself to compiling for example.

I ended up with a small PC. The old IBM PC110 was the smallest but as its 486
era it outlived its usefulness. I now have a palmax which is a bit bigger but
just about fits in a coat pocket. Others like the old Librettos
