    Hi there,
    I just have the same device. Dell Wyse 3020.
    I am trying to follow the instructions from that site, but the system does not boot from the usb. It tries, but then claims something is missing:
    d:/./T10D_wnos
    so it seems that it is looking for the ThinOS to be updated from USB, and does not want to boot the linux :(

    Anyone has any idea on this?

    Hello again,

    I managed to create the USB for the use of Fedora Linux from the OLPC laptop, following the instructions of https://linux-mmp.docs.kernel.org/dell-wyse-3020.html as suggested before.
    Even though there are some minor errors on that page (p.e. the location of a file) I managed to get the wyse 3020 to recognize the USB and "load" the uImage...but then it hangs with a blank screen. I still have to figure out what the problem is now.

    I put it here, just in case someone else finds this in the future :) Wyse TXOD Terminal: ISO Image Booting Failure and Default Login Credentials

    Hey guys these things are all over the place now.

    Isn't there a way so we can use these with Linux? I have been looking though
    the comments and so far as I know we still have no answer.

    I don't want to throw mine away as they are still in top shape. It's so sad they
    made this type of clients so hard to use. Every other thin client at my house and work
    have been reused some way or other for other stuff without this much hassle.

    And indeed booting from USB is the way to go. Is Android an option?
    Or do we need to find another use..

    Hi,
    I am trying to make something out of it with the instruction from https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,63499,63799

    Maybe it is useful for you...

    Thank you. Looks interesting indeed. I'll check it this weekend.

    I was going to try an ARM version of Arch. Supposedly they support a wide range of ARM devices.
