Special thanks go to:
- jcsullins - The guy who made all of this possible by creating moboot, and he created kernel patches that fix the weird-ass framebuffer glitches, and he made the userspace touchscreen driver. This guy is a f**king GENIUS!
- jeanfrancis - pointed me towards better-initramfs, as well as showing me some code on pointing that initramfs to an LV.
- crimsonredmk - showed me the Arch Linux documentation for the TP, and wrote the original instructions for getting Arch Linux on the TP, which I have taken and adapted.
- The CyanogenMod Team - For creating CM7, and getting it working on the TouchPad.
- perpe - made a working rootfs to get it booting while I was busy
