So I've been fuckin' around with this for the past week or so w/ this;
http://ipodlinux.org/Main_Page and this shit is pretty damn cool. It's got a lot of cool crap, and suprisingly, they've done a pretty damn good job of porting a full OS onto a product with little to no documentation, and limited resources. They've got a lot of crap like, a port of MSPaint, Doom, a Gameboy emulator, a text imput, etc.
The cool thing is you can add
Linux to your iPod while keeping the Apple firmware and the ability to boot into either of them. I have a 5g Video and it's great. They even ported a video player for the Nano/Photo. I installed on my sisters Mini, but it's limited to certain programs, and I think having a color one really makes it worth it.
Being open source and in somewhat initial stages it's not without it's bugs and glitches but in my experience it is fairly stable. For those of you giving it a try, definately hit up their forums for tutorials and stuff. For me it was basically one step installation (OSX ftw!) but I think for Windows it requires a bit more work. So here's a few screenshots I took:
