Arch on a PocketBook IQ

Is there anything serious that would prevent one from accomplishing this? The problem I would see is a keyboard, but that can be gotten around I would think.

Possible? Better yet, has anyone done it? What sorts of things would need special consideration?

Re: Arch on a PocketBook IQ

IIRC it has an ARM CPU, so you would need an ARM port https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=117251

Re: Arch on a PocketBook IQ

As long as it runs armv5 or higher and you can load a kernel onto it (preferrably mainline...) you're fine. Since it's Android, there is a chance. Root it and try putting it in a chroot first off.
