is it advantageous to run linux on a 5g?

can someone give me the link.

or is it even worth it?

 

Are you going to be running it on a Nano or a Video?

 

a video

 

If I were you, I'd just run RockBox, since you don't need the video feature of Linux.

 

ugh...
too complicated for my little brain.

 

is your ipod 30gb 60gb or 80gb

 

it would work its a 30gb.

 

You can put linux if you want, but all you'd be getting are a few games, which I think are better in RockBox. As long as you follow the guide EXACTLY, then there shouldn't be any problems. ;-)

 

that sounds scary...

 

LOL It's up to you, really. Both guides show what are the advantages of having it, so just use your preference to chose which. ;-)
