[Angstrom-distro-users] Last valid distro for Zaurus Poodle?

[Chuck Strand]

Here is a document the explains the installation.
http://blog.hentges.net/?page_id=90

There is file called sdimage1.tgz and during the flashing process, that file 
gets decompressed, using gnu-tar.  The flashing process looks very different.  
The decompression and installation takes about 30 min.

I hope that helps.
