woopidoo2 Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Ive tried to install it, but it couldnt install it due to an error (I dont really know what error it was, he just couldnt install it) Are there more people around here who have Linux on their' iPods, to play games? and how did they install it? Ive searched for tutorials and such, but so far no good outcome.

(and files, could my computer crash?) I don't think you have to change any files on the computer itself, but a lot on the ipod. Or atleast I don't remember creating any files on my computer when I did it (except for the files to put on the ipod of course), but that was a long time ago. If you do infact mess the ipod up you can restore it with Apple's ipod restore utility. You will lose all your songs on the ipod but that shouldn't be a problem if they are stored in Itunes.

woopidoo2 Posted May 21, 2007 Author Share Posted May 21, 2007 What kind of advantages is there on having the penguin os at your Linux? I just need Linux to run all those extra applications. Like iDoom ( :? ), Wikipedia (yes, wikipedia) iPaint, other fonts, and a game boy emulator.

blade995 Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 He wont destroy it, you can dual boot linux and the ipod operating system. If something does go wrong 95% of the time the apple restore utility can fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
