Linux on the iPhone

November 28, 2008

One of the members of the iPhone dev team, planetbeing, was able to port version 2.6 of the Linux Kernel to the iPhone.  Demonstration video, instructions, and download link are all available at this site.

Coolest feature so far: dual boot.  You can dual boot your phone into linux or the regular apple OS via the new custom bootloader – OpeniBoot.
