A simple lookup on Wikipedia should have answered your questions in more detail.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbian_OS

Symbian is proprietary, the full source code is not even available to mobile phone manufactureres. Just like Windows.

Symbian runs only on ARM processors and IIRC, Nokia has a major stake in it.
 

Re: Symbian on ARM

Hi
I mean that is it possible that you buy an arm processor and install symbian OS on it? If so how is tha symbian OS format, for example when you want to install Windows you have a CD, now you want to install symbian on an arm what should you do? Where can you find symbian OS installation files?
Thanks
