Yeah the first thing I did was setup SSH/SCP on it... recently found a Debian Etch vm that is working pretty well for me. IMy original reason for asking about the distors was because I had originally d-loaded ubunto vm and even the maemo sdk vw to enable R&D mode... neither worked, but debian etch did..
