Hi

One of board has been running android 2.1 or 2.2.

It is open source code so you may be able to get kernel source from below page and get kernel config file.

This page support japanese only so you can get source from "Appendix 1:".

Hi.

 

Android on iMX25 are not supported by FSL. But I beleive you can port it by yourself.

 

Do you know if iMX25 hardware is enough for Android version you want?

 

You will need to get a kernel source code with android support (I think every 2.6.35 released has) and imx25 support (you can see it under menuconfig)

 

Once you have a pure linux up and running, you should configure your kernel with some Android variables. Then rightly configure PMEM initialization under arch/arch/mach-mx25/board_mx25.c

 

It should be enough for the beginning. You can try to build the android tine build, that will load only sh.

 

Before that, you should take care of ums, vold, media server, and any "feature" you want to enable for your system.

 

You can also ask for specific help here: http://groups.google.com/group/android-porting
