Linux on the iPhone / iPod is possible

Sponsored Links
A member of the team's most famous moment, with respect to the circle of laptops Apple announced one of its follies to take maximum advantage of the benefits to the iPhone, this time not as QuickPwn and PwnageTool.

The character of the pineapple bite planet being named along with other partners has drivers on the reverse engineering of Apple hardware so that Linux can be installed in the iPhone and the iPod generation.

The current userland we're using, in the interest of expedience, is a BusyBox installation created with buildroot, but glibc works fine as well, and we're going to build a more permanent solution userland.

A demonstration video can be seen here: http://www.vimeo.com/2373142

This is fantastic news!

I'm excited to see what Linux ports we will see running on the iPhone in the near future. I'm excited to see what ports we will see Linux running on the iPhone in the near future.
