No, its compiled for ARM and not x86 or x86_64
Install a live Ubuntu with persistant storage on a USB pendrive is much better alternative.
The easiest way is to:
1. burn out a Ubuntu disc
2. boot from it (try without changing your computer)
3. insert you USB Pendrive
4. go to System -> Administrator -> USB creator
5. select your USB Pendrive, and make the persistency file as large as possible
6. when its done reboot your computer to start from the pendrive, remove the disc also so you dont boot from that
7. update your ubuntu with all security updates and such
8. use and enjoy

I wasn't sure where to put this question.
Is it possible to boot PC connected to N900 via USB and run Easy Debian for example? Same way as bootable USB version of Debian or Ubuntu.
or this is very dump noob stupid question

hello,
When i dist-upgraded my n900, i have not space.so i decided move /usr/bin/* & /usr/sbin/* to /home/user/bin/ & /home/user/sbin/ .
I restarted to dist-upgrade after it my n900 restarted but because my file are deleted my n900 doesn't boot.
How do i do?
Can i boot from cool disk?
my data is very important.
