Is any AFS (Android From Scratch) manual exists analogous to Linux from Scratch ?

I want some hard realtime system build on Linux using RTAI/Henomai, and Android on top for user interface and non-RT applications.

As variant, I also interested in building custom Android for x86, Raspberry and CubieBoardw w/o RT, 
just simple customer system for smart home controller.

What manuals should I consult forst ?

1st: Android is basically a shel running on top of Linux with some tools and libs (for some hardware support and basic audio\video frameworks). So in theory you can put anything underneath Android's shell - RTAI, Henomai, FreeBSD, Haiku or even Windows! (if you have a lot of free time and all existing knowledge about Windows' internal stuff). But in practice, OS must support some of Android patches (Linux kernel already supports it).

2nd: If you want to keep Linux as kernel - https://source.android.com/source/requirements
       If you want something else - refer to 1st.
