Any chance the actual GSM/HSDPA phone features can work under this setup? I’m torn between an n900 and a nexusone, but if there was a chance I could get a debian environment running on the nexusone that still has basic phone functionality, that would be very cool.

I have exactly the same issue as digitalirony. Did you work out a solution digitalirony or does the author have any suggestions?

Any help much appreciated.

Perhaps #htc-linux on freenode might be semi useful. I can be found there frequently.

Well, When I get my Droid finally, Would you be interested in helping me? Is there a irc channel that you would recommend? It seems like a worthwhile goal to have a distro like Debian on a phone like the droid. Especially since the droid is USB host capable. There’s work being done to enable android’s kernel to allow it and it would be awesome to have a portable server in a sense.

I have not tested on other hardware, though the process should be very similar. I would think the main thing you would need to change is rebuilding the kernel for your specific device.

Have you been able to test any other hardware? I’m considering getting a Motorola Droid and it’d be funny to see Debian on my phone. :P
