I own a Zaurus (C1000 series) and i've worked on running Debian armel on it. You can read some informations about it on this webpage: http://zecrazytux.net/Geeky_stuffs/Zaurus/ Ressources can be found at oesf.org/forum. Debian armel (EABI) runs great on the Zaurus. You'll need a large storage on a SD card for the rootfs. >> I hope, that the knowledge of "installing debian on freerunner" might be >> easyly transferred to be able to install debian on the Zaurus machine. The >> Zaurus got a strong-arm cpu, as well as the freerunner. The mighty way to "install" debian on a C1000 is by running a on-flash already flashed kernel and a base filesystem on a SD card. >Depending on the amount of storage available, you might want to use >Debian or Emdebian but Emdebian for armel is not ready yet. Debian armel used to run great some month ago :) I haven't took care of my Z for many months due to lack of time... But let's try it ! Have a good day !
