The most supported Linux on microdevices is uCLinux, and even it won't work. The phone's hardware is highly customized, and the O/S is configured for that model alone. You can't even install another symbian on that phone. Besides, Symbian is much smaller than the Linux kernel. You need about 2MB of flash memory at minimum to run a bare bone Linux, with no screen support. Only the binutils package, /bin/sh, serial IO and networking (not even route, just ifconfig). It's very empty. You might be able to store it on the external flash memory and use something like uBoot to boot a phone, but like I mentioned there is no Linux port for those processors. The ARM processor is a popular uC architecture for running Linux on microdevices.
