If you installed Debian on a 512 MB or greater SD or CF, or on a 512 MB loopback filesystem on
hdd3, and have more than 200 MB of free space left on those devices, then you are ready to install
OpenOffice. However, if you installed Debian on a 256 MB loopback system or don't have enough
free disk space left on your loopback filesystem, but still have plenty of disk space left on hdd3,
then you can create and mount an additional loopback filesystem. To create an additional loopback
filesystem do the following:
# su
# cd /hdd3
# mkdir OpenOffice.org1.1.4
# mknod /dev/loop3 b 7 3
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/hdd3/openoffice bs=1M count=256
# echo y | /sbin/mke2fs openoffice
# mount -o loop -t ext2 /hdd3/openoffice /hdd3/OpenOffice.org1.1.4
# mount -o loop -t ext2 /hdd3/pocketworkstation /hdd3/debroot
# mkdir -p /hdd3/debroot/home/zaurus/OpenOffice.org1.1.4
# mount -o bind /hdd3/OpenOffice.org1.1.4 /hdd3/debroot/home/zaurus/OpenOffice.org1.1.4
For preparing for the installation I have extracted the OpenOffice installation binary onto my SD
card which can be easily shared between the Qtopia and chrooted Debian system. If you are
installing to the SD card, make sure you have sufficient additional space for the extracted files or
complement the space with a CF card and vice versa.
# zcat OOo_SRX645_linuxarm_install.tar.gz | tar xvf - -C /mnt/card/Documents
Now start the PocketWorkstation instance and open a terminal window from inside it.
# cd /mnt/card/Documents/instsetoo/unxlngr.pro/01/normal/
# ./setup
Wait until the installer launches and install it chosing your desired options. Make sure you install to
/home/zaurus/OpenOffice.org1.1.4 which is the default or you would need to change a few things
manually to reflect the difference. Once installed you can start OpenOffice as follows:
# cd /home/zaurus/OpenOffice1.1.4
# ./soffice &
