Can anyone help me to compile a modern kernel for the Psion 5MX? - Architectures and Processors forum - Support forums - Arm Community

Hello, I am the last and least skill-full of the openpsion project. I have the last files from the distribution I made for an etch distribution to run on the device

@thelastpsion I’d have to buy a 5MX…. Is there an eBay seller for time? Would need time I don’t have! Would love to help out though.

@M0CUV Yeah, the time is the big one, isn't it? Don't think Amazon have managed to bottle it yet. Although I can imagine someone on AliExpress is giving it a go...

Kernel hacking is way outside my skillset right now, plus I'm trying to focus on EPOC16. But it seems he's willing to give someone all the kit to get started, which I'd assume includes at least one 5mx.

It probably needs a team of part-timers. But I don't know if thereb are enough people out there willing to take it on.
