Not possible on O2 XDA Stealth ATM..HTC phones have very limited(if any at all) support for linux. HTC have tried their level best to make sure linux does not work on their phones. However, some smart developers were able to develop drivers and tweak the kernel for the phones. It works on very few phones at the moment. Keep checking xda-devs for updates..

Hey thanks a lot guys for those repies!! I will check the links you suggested. But tel me this, might be a stupid question, i donno really, if I connect that phone to my comp can i format it and try installing (or something like that) just as any drive, or do I need certain softwares for it.

You dont need a computer to format the phone.

If you have active-sync installed (or windows mobile device center if on Vista) then you can copy files to the phone/memory card via the icon that shows up in explorer.

If you want to have it as a separate drive in your explorer, you need a software called Softick Export or something like that. This software turns your phone into a memory-card reader.
