First boot takes about 10 min to boot so be patient
the OS will be smooth after that

Hi
I downloaded the 3 files.
-eclairhero.user.conf
-rootfs.img
-system.sqsh

As I understand I use a haret.exe and startup.txt file from another build?
But what modules/zimage do I use?

the conf file, is it suppose to be directly in root of sd card or in a conf folder?
Also do I use only one fat32 partition?
can I use swap and ext2?

Thanks!!

Step-by-Step

I was once trying to figure this out so here is a step-by-step...as simple as I can make it:

1) Download base package from post #1.

2) Unzip to the root of your phone's SD card. Should look like this (image 01.jpg):

3) Go into the "STARTUP CONFIG" folder and find the STARTUP.TXT that is right for your device and move it to the root directory of the SD card. So now your root will look like this (02.jpg):

4) Download the latest system####.sqsh from post #1.

5) Rename it to just "system.sqsh" and move it to the root of your SD card.

6) Download the latest rootfs.img file from post #1, unzip it, rename it to "rootfs.img" if needbe and move it to the root of your SD card.

7) Now, you will want to check out http://glemsom.users.anapnea.net/android2/ and snag the latest zimage file and module file. Unzip them and put them on the root of your SD card. You will want to rename the zimage to just "zimage" (no extention).

So, the end result of your root directory should be something like this:

Now, to clean things up, you can delete the "STARTUP CONFIG" directory and the "rename_androidapps_after_1st_boot".

If you have apps you want on there, you can create a folder called "AndriodApps" and throw the apps in there and it will install them during boot up.

Now, just disconnect from your computer and open up file explorer on WinMo and run Haret...you should get two short vibrations and then your cookin!!!

Keep updating steps 4, 6, and 7 as needed.

Hope this helps!

If I forgot something, let me know and I'll update the post.
