Possible to run another OS on the StarTek?

[MountainX]

I have the Cingular 3125 running WinMo 5. Can I install Linux on this phone? What non-Windows OS would run on this phone? Thanks.

I think this is possible. Qtek have is OMAP CPU.

That would be great. Has anyone done it?

Can anyone suggest how I could do it?

Thanks

That's a great link. Thanks.

If I can't get Linux running on the StarTrek myself, I will give my phone to one of the developers working on the Linux for phones project(s). I have 2 wall chargers, a car charger and a bunch of other accessories for my phone. The phone is like new.

Beyond what's shown in the video, I was later able to get an interactive shell over USB and start X. I started working on some very, *very* rudimentary steps to support the phone's buttons, but I lost interest fairly quickly due to the limitations of working with the phone and my own inexperience with lower-level Linux stuff.

The patches I made for the keymaps are on GitHub (http://github.com/BHSPitMonkey/linwizard-strtrk).

If anyone else sees this thread and has the time/expertise to work on it some more, check out #htc-linux on irc.freenode.net.

You can try android from the guys at wing-linux, heres my post on the tornado section, use the files i used on my tornado and android "should" boot up since the strtk has the same omap850 cpu, follow the instructions i provided, good luck.

heres my post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=560629)

Note: the keys will be messup as theres no keyconfig for the startk.

Go to my post and read the instructions...it says:
Files that need to be Downloaded:
wing-linux-0.4pre4.zip

After your done downloading this installed only these 2 cabs in your storage card:
1.wing-linux-0.4pre4-rootfs.cab
2.wing-linux-0.4pre4-excalibur.cab

I've been working with the awesome guys over at wing-linux for the past few days, and we now have a working configuration for the Startrek. Expect to see it in their source tree sometime this week.

I'll start a new thread in this forum with details soon, but at the moment all I can offer is this bit of enticement:
