HI

 I have uploaded debian images to Brendan's site,
 http://www.barwap.com/upload/
 now I wonder does it even boot to your tomtom's :)

 If it boots and prints something like debian login:
 you can try to scan bluetooth to see if
 there's a host called tomtom-0
 If you see this, that's a good sign, you can login
 to it as root (no password) via bluetooth rfcomm channel 2

 However, It may not work out of the box or it needs
 setup. My image expects bluetooth device to be at /dev/ttySAC1
 I imagine various hardware may get it different
 setup is in /root/bin/bluetoothinit.sh and /etc/bluetooth/uart

 if you can login, congratulations, then you can setup on
 your computer a DUN server (dial up networking) and
 enter your computer's bluetooth MAC address to tomtom's
 rfcomm1 device, address is in /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf

 Basically there's a bluetooth chip that might cause problems
 or be different on various hardware, And it needs some user
 space initialization program to be run before linux bluetooth
 daemons are started. Also It can crash kernel when initialized
 and restarted too much (in my case, more than once is too much :)

 If you have bluetooth keyboard and/or mouse you can pair them
 with the tomtom specifying their bluetooth MAC address with command

 hidd --connect 11:22:33:44:55:66

 With keyboard and mouse working (and network via DUN of course)
 I recommend you to install framebuffer X.org X11 server, ion2
 window manager and dillo2 web browser (official debian dosen't
 yet have dillo2 but there exist debian package for arm in some nslu2
 project web site (can't remember exact url but you'll find it). It works
 well on tomtom

 If it works, we can call the debian for tomtom DebDeb

 Best regards,
 Davor
