Linux on a Windows CE Pocket PC PDA (Cassiopeia E115)

[dude8604]

Is there a version of Linux that will run on a Cassiopeia E115 (a Pocket PC PDA with a MIPS processor)? I looked on the internet, but I didn't find much. Thanks!

I've got pocketlinux running on my compaq pocket pc, im assuming that your model is nearly the same.

I'm having problems trying to figure out which files to download. Can you help me figure out which files to download? Thanks!

It seems that the pocketlinux site has fallen behind a bit since i had been there last.

You may want to try subscribing to the mailing list and asking on there. A couple posts i had seen in their archives led me to believe that maybe the port to Casiopeia hasnt been completed yet.

looks like there has been a port. Check out this page of the FAQ. It talks about installing a MIPS based device like your Casiopeia.

Good luck!
