Psion World

I, in my capacity as h4x0r, blagged a Psion 5 off Ben Thompson and installed linux on it. You two can be like me, get a Psion from ebay and then, for the series 5 at least, follow these instructions.

What am I going to do with Linux on a Psion 5? Here’s what:

  • Install Microwindows
  • Get ViewML (web browser)
  • DOOM! For Microwindows!
  • IrDA, to the phone then out to the net… Tullis’s help req.
  • Apache + PHP + MySQL development environment if poss
  • Try and find an ethernet adapter
  • Other linuxy things…

All good clean fun then.
