Midori Linux for your I-Opener!

Hi!

I'm in the process of building a version of Transmeta's Midori-Linux for the Iopener's 16MB SunDisk.

Currently it features:

* Linux 2.4.3-midori
* Netscape 4.76 (with Shockwave Flash 4(TM), but without Java(TM)-support)
* busybox-0.47
* xmms 1.0.3
* NFS-support for your favourite mp3s :)
* pump dhcp-client
* Web-based configuration interface

A test-version with the following limitations is available at http://tengu.homeip.net/midori/

* has only been tested on a modified iopener with a K6-III, 64 MB RAM
* will only work with a pegasus USB-Ethernet-Converter
* no support for ppp yet
* not tested for security

Please tell me what you think.

Regards,
Ingo.

ipaschke (that's hard to type),

I'm currently working on a midori version for the GCT. I've been able to create mlz packages for opera (also png & jpeg).

I wonder if your image will work for a web player....

chaezewhiz,

I thought about including Opera instead of netscape, but the sponsored version's
banners take up way too much of the iopener's limit screen.

My image most certainly won't work on anything but an Iopener unless you replace
the kernel, XFree86 driver modules and XF86Config. You should be able to do that quite
easily once 1.0 is out.
