    It's mostly for geeks who just want to hack at something.

    Honestly tho, doing that usually cuts the ipod's battery life by 30%, and there are still alot of bugs.

    Then again, I can't turn my ipod off half the time because the touchpad doesn't read my fingertips very well. ;)

    i put linux on my iPod. The linux music player didn't work but there was some pretty fun games. Looking at pictures was cool too.

    ya i posted it a few months ago, pretty crazy, but my ipod wont restart. if i try "select and menu" then it just turns on and doesnt respond to anything. i used to have doom on my ipod mini 1gen but linux started messing with the ipod and stuff so i just took it off. i was thinking of putting it back on lately but im just too lazy. ah well. if your good with computers its fun to play around with. you fucking nerd
