I'm in. Just picked up a Pure yesterday. I've worked on both the Pharos and Polaris ports and am ready to get android on my new toy. Shadowline we should get together in an IRC room and talk about progress. I've set one up that I'll try to keep open 24/7: #topaz_android

Finally. Thanks.

You should be able to compile the kernel for topaz from the current linuxtogo 2.6.27 head.
Let me know how far the boot process comes.
Don't expect it to work properly: HTC has upgraded the AMSS version,
that has different RPC version codes and a bit different SMD layout
(used by samsung msm7201A kernel too)
It will be also helpful if you will post the list of files in \windows

I downloaded the 2.6.27 branch last night but had a question creating the config file.

Should I run: make htctopaz_defconfig ARCH=arm; make menuconfig

Yes, and change the AMSS from 5200 to 6120 in defconfig
This is a bug in the current defconfig

When I make the zImage it's erroring out at the PM stuff:

arch/arm/mach-msm/pm.c: In function 'msm_sleep':
arch/arm/mach-msm/pm.c:352: error: storage size of 'vibra' isn't known

Additionally it asked me about 50 questions... not really sure what to answer on most of them so I answered "Y".

Ok, then your best bet is to run "make htcblackstone_defconfig" and
chose in "make menuconfig" the topaz device name and AMSS 6120.
That's how i have compiled it on my machine.

Well it got farther... now i'm getting:

CC drivers/video/console/vgacon.o
drivers/video/console/vgacon.c: In function 'vgacon_startup':
drivers/video/console/vgacon.c:494: error: 'PCIMEM_BASE' undeclared (first use in this function)

make[3]: *** [drivers/video/console/vgacon.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** [drivers/video/console] Error 2
make[1]: *** [drivers/video] Error 2
make: *** [drivers] Error 2


FYI, I ended up having to comment out the vibra stuff in pm.c to get past that error... it was refering to some vibra.cmd???

I have fixed several bugs preventing it from bootingnow. Please try
