PanzerSajt: Your script is exactly what I thought to do myself, great! Mind if I do systemd unit for it and package it up?

15jamie20: Welcome! If you can do C I'm sure you can help a lot.

So guys, should we setup IRC channel to discuss? Something like #n900-other-os or similar?

Would be nice to have a installable package. All I ask is acces to the final package so that we can use it also in Ubuntu.

Yes an IRC channel for porting OS to N900 would be nice.

Repo is now up. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/49989728/arch-n900/README

Highly experimental, don't expect much. For testing only.

I went through the steps, but when I try to boot it from u-boot it just hangs at "Starting kernel..." - how can I figure out what's wrong?

So far the every single reported failure to boot has been because of wrongly configured U-Boot.
