Install linux on Motorola L6 Phone

I have a Motorola L6 cell phone that I'm no longer using, including pc connector cable, and just for the fun of it I was wondering if it were possible to install linux on the phone. Not to make any calls — I don't have service for it — just to see if I could get it working and what apps it might be able to use.

You can check http://forum.motofan.ru/index.php?showtopic=117307 (in Russian), but a generic distro will never support these phones, because they need custom loader, custom kernel and a lot of not yet written drivers.

I'm not sure a linux distro would fit into a cell phone,and even if it did,i don't think the phone would have the capabilities of actually running the system
