I ordered one of these Mini2440 / ARM9 boards produced by
Hiteg, http://www.developmentboard.net as a development platform
to start working with Android. Has anyone done any work to port
Android to this board yet ?

Thanks

Peeeer,

I finally got a 2.6.30 kernel to compile that will boot a Angstrom
rootfs, but I have not taken it any farther. The docs from Google
to port in another kernel is lacking to say the least.. Since the official
2.6.30 kernel now has Mini2440 support, my plan is to wait for
the Android build tree to catch up so that I can use the config process
from the kernel included in the git tree.

If you are having problems getting a kernel to boot from source, I
posted some notes at http://www.friendlyarm.org/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=42

If you are in the BayArea, you may consider going to this,
http://www.meetup.com/Android-Embedded-Makers-Meetup
I plan to be there..

Regards
John Gentilin
