Hello all !!
I've seen many videos about nokia's N900 device and I really would like to install Maemo 5 beta fremantle on a PC (for example a EEE PC 701 which have approximatly the same specifications as the 900, and on which I go to put a touch screen) and I don't arrive to find where I can download an image of Maemo 5 for x86, cause i just found the sdk, but in the sdk's targets i've seen ARMEL and X86, and it's that which make me think that it's possible to install maemo on non-arm based devices.
So where can i find this image please ?
Or i there is none, who can I have Maemo 5 on a PC ?
Regards.
PS : I love Nokia's 'experiencing N900' video !!!

i know that and i have experienced it by myself
but now my question i how to install maemo on a pc
at the moment i have installed a minimal debian in virtual box and added maemo repos (i think : 'deb http://repository.maemo.org/debian/ fremantle/sdk free' and 'deb http://repository.maemo.org/debian/ fremantle/tools free') and then installed 'hildon-desktop', 'matchbox-windiw-manager' and other packages but nothind happened and XOrg doesn't work at all...
is this the good way ?
is there a better one ?
Thanks for advance
Best regards

To my knowledge, you can not run any version Maemo as a native OS on an x86 PC.

You can run the SDK for Maemo on a PC.
You cannot run Maemo itself on a normal PC.
