suitability for HP 200LX?

[ishotjr]

Has anyone run ELKS on the V20-based HP 200LX? I'd like to give it a try but the lack of floppy disk and requirement to instead write to PCMCIA (or CF) from Linux will be a bit more of a challenge, so I wanted to get a feel for feasibility first? 💗

Hi @ishotjr, I should think ELKS will come up and run on the HP 200LX without problems. For your first pass, perhaps just grab a bootable image from the 0.8.0 Release page. Should there be issues, please report them and we might have to have you pull the repo and do a custom build, but we'll only know what is needed after seeing the boot screen.

Thank you!

An educational purpose Uni*x clone called MINIX is available for HP 100/200/700LX and 1000 CX palmtops. It requires significant amount of tweaking to run on the unusual 80186 CPU + PCMCIA hardware.
