N810 Architecture
 

Hey. I heard that the n800 and the 770 had ARM processors. And the n810 has a TI OMAP processor. What architecture is that based on? Is there any way I could install a gcc-based compiler or even gcc? If it is based on ARM, could I cross-compile my C programs(I have some that I NEED to run on the tablet)? Would they work in Xterminal? How about bash? I hope I can but BASH or at least SH on it!

SO that whole thing comes down to:
1. Could I run command-line programs on the tablet?
2. Is Bash or sh available for the n810?
3. What shell does the n810 use as default?

Re: N810 Architecture
 

1. Yes
2. Yes
3. Yes

Busybox Ash is default shell.

N800 and N810 are the same board basically. The TI OMAP is an all-in-one chip that contains an ARM11 core. Both a cross compile version of gcc and a native gcc are available. Bash is available as well. Hope that helps.

Some facts:

TI OMAP is an ARM processor.
N800 processor = N810 processor = TI OMAP2420

Thanks Guys. Now, I am no tin love with the n810 anymore...I am obsessed with it. I can't wait to get it.
