iPodLinux (redirected from IPod Linux)

A version of Linux for the iPod from the iPodLinux Project (www.ipodlinux.org). It adds a dual boot manager to the iPod that allows the user to switch to Linux at startup. The goal is to enhance the iPod's capabilities, including support for more music formats and direct file transfer between iPods. Of course, the main reason is that "it can be done!" See Podzilla.

The Penguin on the iPod

Linux enthusiasts might purchase an iPod just to see "the penguin" appear on their music players. (Image courtesy of the iPodLinux Project, www.ipodlinux.org)
