In the case that you have mentioned I think that some more information from your side will be required. Well I have not yet come across the term like Medion PC and I will really appreciate if you can revise your post with the specifications of the said phone. I will then only be able to put some light on the issue that you are facing at the moment. Till then you can wait for the other members to turn up with some useful solutions in this matter.

Well to start with I think that what Ceesar has mentioned I think that you will have to post again the query with the specifications that you have on the mobile phone. In addition to that I would also like to know if at all you have the MMU in your cell phone. Please let us know about these two things in the next post of yours. I am looking into this matter and will post if I will find really something meaningful in this respect.

Thanks a lot for making the post soon well I was not expecting that you all will come up with such results and will come so early with something to search for. I am really sorry that I did not mention the specifications in the first post so the specification is here: The CPU is Intel PXA255, the RAM here is 64Mb and MMC/SD is about 2 GB. I think that I have corrected my mistake, well in addition to that you all have asked about the MMU and I am really sorry for that, I really do not know what this MMU is and I will be really happy if you can clear the point regarding the same. Also can you tell me what is there to do with the MMU? Well hope that your response will flow in the manner that it is flowing at the moment.

Well the MMU is the Memory Management Unit and the reason behind asking this can be that some of the PDA just lacks this and if you want to have the Linux on the Pocket PC then you are required to have the MMU for you. Also if at all you have the MMU then let me tell you that you will be able to use ucLinux on the Medion PPC of yours. Well I was able to have the ucLinux on the m515 of mine and if you have that on your Medion PPC then I am sure that you will be able to have the Linux on the same. Please let us know if you have the MMU in the Medion PPC so that we can help you further.
