 Hi Greg,
Thanks for the links!
"Sadly, this is all very abandoned, there is not much interest in these devices"  Agree!!!
Any suggestions to keeping 32 bit Apple Mobile Devices running on their original iOS versions?
Thanks again for your help!
Ken

Hi Johannes,Thanks for your comments!Since posting have been searching for postings of Open OSes on 32 bit Apple Mobile Devices.While have found things like "Dual-Boot Android on Your iPhone"  https://ios.gadgethacks.com/how-to/exclusive-dual-boot-android-your-iphone-ios-7-0161123/  closer exam reveals "Thanks for having some fun with us this April Fool's Day! We hope you all enjoyed this as much as we had coming up with it. If and when something like this becomes a reality, we'll have your step-by-step guide ready at AppleHacks.com."

Hi,
While your 4S is too new, there were (non-April-Fool) attempts at booting custom OSes on the iPhone 4, original iPad and older devices.

Sadly, this is all very abandoned, there is not much interest in these devices.

            Bug ID: 228285
           Summary: FreeBSD 11.2-BETA1 does not boot on BeagleBone Black
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.1-STABLE
          Hardware: arm
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: arm
          Assignee: freebsd-arm@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: karels@freebsd.org

I tried to boot 11.2-BETA1 on a BeagleBone Black that had been running
11.1-RELEASE.  It didn't boot, falling back to the EMMC (which isn't bootable,
a different problem).  I was also unable to boot the snapshot from 12/20.
I see that the boot partition has different contents:

11.1-RELEASE:
MLO             u-boot.img      ubldr           ubldr.bin

11.2-BETA1:
MLO             boot.scr        u-boot.img      ubldr.bin

fwiw, when trying to boot the failing versions, I get a stream of 'C'
characters on the serial console, which I also get when trying to boot from
EMMC.
