Yeah, thought so.
Just wondering why nobody has tried this yet, etc. installing ArchLinux on their N900.
The problem is that I'm kind of clueless, so if somebody were to give it a shot, please do a step by step.
To chroot Archlinux, get the keyboard running, etc, all information is already in this thread.

Is the Ubuntu image of the original post definitely lost, with no mirror at all? I tried the ubuntu-m5-v1.img.ext2.lzma file from Qole's website, but ubuntu-N900 fails at mounting it.

Sorry for the Noob Q -
How can we run Gnome desktop on here?
More of a proof of concept than for speed

Gnome - Yep.
Find the right packages and if it will install. Yes.
I've had a few others run.

I finally gave Up with testing those OS. It was a bit slow and I had a few problems concerning the keyboard under Ubuntu.
