A second image, pdaXqtrom apps, is also provided as an add-on with the applications listed below

pre-installed and configured.

The pdaXqtrom base and application images are available from the following location:

pdaXqtrom

images

In addition, there also are a few special

feeds

for all the tested applications. The base and apps

images are build from these feeds. The base image can be used with the pre-configured application

image, or individual applications can be separately installed from the apps feed using the default

Sharp installer.

The pdaXQtrom compressed images can be installed to anywhere you like. Basically, put them

where ever you have the space for it. There are three different formats to choose from: cram,

squash and tgz. The cramfs compressed images will work for everyone. In order to use the

squashfs images, you will need to install a squashfs kernel module first. The advantage of squashfs
over cramfs is that it has better compression and thus is smaller. The last option is a compressed

tarball. If you don't want to use compressed loop back images but want to extract the files, then

you can use the tgz files. However, make sure the destination for the install is an ext2 or ext3

formatted filesystem if you use the tgz file. For the cramfs/squashfs images, the filesystem type
does not matter.

To install, copy the files you want to install and the install script (inside

pdaXqtrom-install.zip

) to

the destination location. Make sure they are all in the same directory and then do the following:

# su

# ./pdaXqtrom-install.sh

The install script will mount the cramfs or squashfs file images and run the setup scripts of each
image. If you used the tgz file, it will extract the files and then run the setup scripts. Make sure you

have sufficient space for the extracted files if you use the tgz files. The setup script does not check

for sufficient disk space and just assumes you have enough free disk space.

You need to install at least the

pdaXqtrom-base

image. You can install the

pdaXqtrom-apps

image as well or install individual application packages manually. The

zgcc

image is an optional

native C/C++ compiler if you want to compile your own applications on your Zaurus. It can build

applications for QT/E 1.5 (Sharp/Cacko ROM) as well as X11 applications for pdaXqtrom (X/Qt). A
minimal Perl is also included on this image. The

java

image contains

blackdown 1.3.1

as well as

jamvm 1.4.2

and

classpath 0.20

for running java applications. Several java compilers and tools

such as

jikes

and

jar

are also included.

jEdit 4.2

has been configured to use blackdown jvm.

HdPad

(simple text editor) and

HdCrawler

(dynamic file downloader) are also included which use
