I'm able to boot Linwizard 0.2.0 on my Elfin. Great work from the Linwizard team!

With the new Linwizard kernel I even get the tux Logo and after using the android initrd I get a ANDROID line and a blinking cursor. How far are we now from bringing up the x server?

I forgot to mention that I have a WM6.1 Blue elves images on my ELF. With the KILL commands I'm trying to free up some space before starting linux

Default NFS?

Was any one of you mounting the android image over nfs? What are the CMDLINE options and which IP will the kernel have afterwards? Before going on I'd like to try the NFS way, just to see how far we can get, if the cell phone is attached to a supporting Laptop (not that mobile though)

First you need the Linwizard android branch kernel. I've downloaded the android branch from Linwizard git server and compiled my own.

After that you need to export your android file system via NFS on the PC side. On your Elf, do a 'mount -t nfs -o nolock <you pc ip address>:<file path to your android file system> <local mount point on Elf>'. After that, do a chroot on Elf to start Android. See http://elinux.org/Android_on_OMAP#Start_up for details.

I've tried this on my Elfin and I can see the red eye moving. But after some time I get a segmentation fault and the red eye stops. The Elfin did not hang though. I can still ssh into it. I have not had time to further test after this.
