The Zaurus has very little RAM and to get the Einstein Platform 2006
running on it, you need to install the Bootstrap image as well as a
series of packages Einstein Platform 2006 requires, as mentioned in
the User Manual which is part of the distribution.

armlinux.tgz

For most packages, the version doesn't matter. The critical one is
libstdc++. It must be version 6 something or Einstein won't start.

The installation of these packages can be done by using the ipkg
command line tool. Copy the files to a CF card and then install them
by typing on the Zaurus. I think the command is something like:
ipkg install file.ipk

e.g.

ipkg install libstdc++6_3.4.3-r10_arm.ipk

Don't hesitate to use the tab key to auto-complete.
