TI OMAP (Imate)

TI OMAP (Imate)

[Gureek]

Hello All,

Recently I bought an Imate K-Jam, having
windows mobile 5,
 GSM/GPRS,
wifi 802.11,
128 mb rom,
64 mb ram.
1.2 meg camera

The cpu settings show TI OMAP850, I am not able to understand is it
same as OMAP 1510 because in the quotes and bills and Imate's website
also K-Jam is supposed to have 1510. So am I cheated by the vendor ?

My objective is two port linux.
I started with taking ROM backup,  copied Bootblaster v19,
It made two files wince.gz (1KB) and saved_bootldr.bin (256 KB).

Is it correct, I mean the memory occupied by two files?
 Now next step is to put bootloader for it............
Searched a lot for bootldr for Omap, but no results.

Please if anyone can direct me to some link about bootldr for omap and
what linux distributions I can use. Will be thankful

Regards
Gureek

Hi,

Imate K-Jam (aka HTC Wizard) bootloader is supposed to be similar to 
Typhoon. Have a look at the Typhoon port effort at : 
http://vivien.chappelier.free.fr/typhoon/index.html

The most used linux distribution on HTC PDA phones is Familiar with GPE 
or Opie :
