How should I install Linux on a Palm m515?

I have a Palm m515 that is sitting and collecting dust, so I figured that I would install Linux on it. How should I do this? Also, what I mean by this is that I will be able to use Linux on the handheld, as opposed to connecting to it from my computer using a program like screen. You know, something like Opie, except that it works on the m515.

Not something for the average user, perhaps--it looks a right bit tricky to me:

The hardware testing status shows your particular device, the m515, as needing testing. An older m500 seems to work, though.

This really looks to be more of a "hard hack" than a practical idea...
