I'm asking that anyone could change OS system of PDA. I have a PDA "Porient H9" which is XScale 524Mhz running Linux OS. Is it possible to change the OS to WM? The specifications of this PDA like Athena, is it possible to flash Athena ROM to this machine? Thanks.

Basicly it's possible to change OS, but in this case it's impossible - NO WM ROM exist for this device.

And never ever try to flash any other ROM that is not designed for Your device. :)

Thanks for your reply. I have this idea because I found no software to support this OS and it becomes totally useless. It would become useful if the OS is WM. I want to flash Athena ROM because their specifications are very much alike. But I don't know how to get into bootloader mode. Hope any expert here can help me.

YOU CAN'T FLASH ATHENA ROM!!!

Drivers are different and similar hardware doesn't mean anything.

Never try to flash any other device ROM, because You will brick it.
