Hi all,
I've an Ipaq 3630 (32Mb and no accessories) and I want to try to install gentoo on it.
The problem is that I'm a newbie and I've no idea about how to go about this. Is there a howto or simple documentation or can somebody give me some tips?

Thanks all,
Denix

dnix,

Start out with a small step - install familliar and see how you get on.

that's impossible unless you have a huge storage space
by the way this is a great pda under linux because you have lall the pcmcia support that wince doesn't have(needs specific drivers lol)

Hi all,
the question is... is the arm branch in the tree still maintained? do you need help? I'm new to this kind of thing, but now I'm using Familiar but I'd prefer to use gentoo instead

I'm waiting for an expansion pack, so later I'll have up to 512Mb storage space

cheers,
Denix
