yea gnafin it can be done with a linux pc....see the link I posted earlier in the thread.

Gentoo linux has a ppc port, might wanna check it out. I can't spare the downtime, but that would kick a.

let us know what you come up with

I noticed it's been a month since anything has been added to http://handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/HTCApache .

Watching some of the other threads here, I'm willing to bet there are a few people here who could tackle the phone/data part of the phone and get something going.

I just wonder if there would be any real advantage to replacing WM5 with Linux other than 'sticking it to the man'.

It doesn't seem like there is a huge selection of apps to choose from, but any that are out there would most likely be open-source (Free)

Actually now that i think about it, this could be an alternative to hosting the ROMs (incase M$ wants to take ours down too) if we could get the phone part working. I'm still running windows on my computers (home and work) though so i'm probably not going to head that direction right away.

Oh and it looks like they already got the 4gb mem card working :wink:

What more do need than to be able to 'stick it to the man'? lol

Yeah so am I, but this my edition: :twisted:

i think a open-source for the 6700 would be good, and get a way from the MS stuff.....

This should help you on your quest...after installing just use Gparted to partition your sd and the rest history...

I used to use Ubuntu before switching back to Windows...

let me know if you need more help
