A second image, pdaXqtrom apps, is also provided as an add-on with the applications listed below
pre-installed and configured.
The pdaXqtrom base and application images are available from the following location:
images
In addition, there also are a few special
images are build from these feeds. The base image can be used with the pre-configured application
image, or individual applications can be separately installed from the apps feed using the default
Sharp installer.
The pdaXQtrom compressed images can be installed to anywhere you like. Basically, put them
where ever you have the space for it. There are three different formats to choose from: cram,
squash and tgz. The cramfs compressed images will work for everyone. In order to use the
squashfs images, you will need to install a squashfs kernel module first. The advantage of squashfs
over cramfs is that it has better compression and thus is smaller. The last option is a compressed
tarball. If you don't want to use compressed loop back images but want to extract the files, then
you can use the tgz files. However, make sure the destination for the install is an ext2 or ext3
formatted filesystem if you use the tgz file. For the cramfs/squashfs images, the filesystem type
does not matter.
To install, copy the files you want to install and the install script (inside pdaXqtrom-install.zip) to
the destination location. Make sure they are all in the same directory and then do the following:
# su
# ./pdaXqtrom-install.sh
The install script will mount the cramfs or squashfs file images and run the setup scripts of each
image. If you used the tgz file, it will extract the files and then run the setup scripts. Make sure you
have sufficient space for the extracted files if you use the tgz files. The setup script does not check
for sufficient disk space and just assumes you have enough free disk space.
You need to install at least the pdaXqtrom-base image. You can install the pdaXqtrom-apps
image as well or install individual application packages manually. The zgcc image is an optional
native C/C++ compiler if you want to compile your own applications on your Zaurus. It can build
applications for QT/E 1.5 (Sharp/Cacko ROM) as well as X11 applications for pdaXqtrom (X/Qt). A
minimal Perl is also included on this image. The java image contains blackdown 1.3.1 as well as
jamvm 1.4.2 and classpath 0.20 for running java applications. Several java compilers and tools
such as jikes and jar are also included. jEdit 4.2 has been configured to use blackdown jvm.
HdPad (simple text editor) and HdCrawler (dynamic file downloader) are also included which use
