I have a Nokia N73 phone and i want to know if there is any way to boot a minimal linux on my phone (something like install linux on the memory card and boot from it).

I think there must be some programming knowledge to do this if you got any pls post it here.

At least you would need to have an access to boot loader (which is probably signed), in order to change it to boot anywhere else than normal memory address. Boot loader should be hacked (or re-engineered) to be capable or reading memory card filesystem, whatever you choose to mount it.

All this above requires quite a bunch of knowledge.
