2G 10GB iPod, I used version 0.3a of Jeffrey Nelson (aka macPod)'s excellent iPod-Linux Installer for Mac OS X, located here. This is by far the easiest way to install Linux on a Mac-formatted iPod. It requires no knowledge of Linux or iPod hardware - just press the button and watch it do its stuff Business - All business/finance/loan/mortgage related link can be found here Computers - All computer hardware/software/peripheral related link can be found here Internet - All webhosting/webdesign/internet marketing related link can be found here Software - All software related link can be found here Web Design - All web design/development related link can be found here Web Hosting - All web hosting related link can be found here Web Promotion - All search engine optimization/internet marketing related link can be found here Web Resources - All other web related link can be found here Recreation - All travel/hotel/cruise related link can be found here Casino - All online gambling/poker/blackjack/roulette related link can be found here Health - All online pharmacy/hospital/health related link can be found here Shopping - All online shopping/gift related link can be found here Miscellaneous - All other links can be found here
The installation process, while relatively invasive, appears to be quite safe as long as one follows the directions. After connecting via Firewire (or, optionally, USB 2.0 for 3G iPods), the installer downloads the iPod's firmware to your Mac, patches it to allow dual-booting of Linux (yes, Apple's original OS is still there!), and re-installs the new hacked firmware onto the iPod. |
