[Click] running click on a sharp zaurus SL-5500/5600

[Michael Voorhaen]

Hi,

I was wondering if any of you here had any experience running Click on a
sharp zaurus. We are thinking of building a small testbed, and thought it
might be interesting to use a couple of handhelds. I've been looking over my
options, and saw that I could install Linux on an iPAQ, and that Click
should work on that. I'd be willing to do this, but was wondering if it
would not be easier to just use sharp handhelds instead, since they come
with Linux (Embedix from Lineo) installed.

Also the sharp devices use flash cards to deliver WLAN and Bluetooth, so it
would be easy to exchange the cards.

My question to you is, have any of you ever tried this, or do you have an
idea if this will work. What kind of problems might we encounter?

I also read that in order to run the code on an iPAQ you need to minimize
the size of the binary files. Does anyone know of any good documentation on
how to do this.

Thanks in advance,
Michael Voorhaen
