    Is there anyway to install a os(such as Linux, Windows Mobile, Mac OS, Windows Ce, ect...) on a Zune? The reason why I want to install an OS on My Zune is to make it into a 30GB pocket PC.

    You made a bad choice for mp3 players. To install software your computer would have to recognize the Zune as a USB disk. The Zune will not act as a USB disk.

    Putting a foreign OS on an mp3 player is advanced stuff while knowing the Zune is 100% propriatary is pretty basic info.

    I am surely wrong, but I think you are way out of your element.
