Comment Support for Debian on the Zaurus. (Score 1) 17

Recently I received a Zaurus machine and reflashed it with the pdaxrom image. However, I find almost every image for the Zaurus a bit inadequate - getting used to Debian on the desktop makes it frustrating not to have 10000 apps apt-get'able at your fingertips.

However, I did manage to manually bootstrap a ARM-port of the Debian system over NFS and later downloaded it to a sundisk. I simply chroot to it, and then I have all I need including apt-get.

There are some web pages that describe how to use Debian on the Zaurus, but I haven't found yet anything that has ready images and easy installation.
