So everyone's probably seen the extensive changes we did to the initrd. If not find them in this post here. We've removed the rootfs completely. And setup an amazing new install menu, this was all vilord and if anyone deserves a donation it's him. This means that no older builds with work with this until they've been updated. We're going to post a new thread with instructions to create a compatible system. These builds are both setup for 320x480 resolution, however it is very easy now to change stuff. So if on windows download 7zip, open the tar file with zip, than open the build.prop and change the LCD Density accordingly. Save the changes and when prompted add the changed file back in.
instructions
unrar the file and copy the androidinstall.tar so a folder on your sdcard called andboot.

Build 1.
Eclair 2.1 Vogue edition;
Features;
Working Audio
Working GPS
Partially working bluetooth (I've some kernel updates to finish I think)
Full sleep support
Customized Animated Wallpapers for our phones, I rewritten the app to use lower resolutions, less sprites and lowered other features. As well I've optimized the images to make them use ALOT less ram. I am still working on this app so watch this thread for updates for the livewallpapers. As example I've fixed, but not yet included the galaxy wallpaper, and made more progress on water.. But I've got to post this sometime
It's a little slow to start but runs great once it's up and running.

What doesn't work

Camera, that's next on the list of libs to work on.
Some of the animated wallpapers don't work and the grass one is way too big still.
While the audio in works, things like the voice search and voicekeyboard don't tend to get the right words. There's been some fun ones come up
Bluetooth syncs with my headset but I get no sound. Please let me know if it's the same for you. I believe there's more to do to the libs to get bluetooth working properly.

Additional Info
It's a little slow to start up because I'm making sure all the apps are optimized on every boot. Maps isn't included, so you can update it.

Build 2
This is just a port of an older WesG build from the dream forums. It's rock solid stable with no issues, again though you have to enter your own apn information. I haven't yet applied the BT fix yet, but as the system is so easy to work with now anyone can do it

If you like my customize apps and drivers and want to use it in your build. Ask
If you like my work donate to DZO! He's done ALL the work, we've just done tidbits.
Great job on this my friend!

don't extract it. just put it in /sdcard/andboot with the new initrd from the NoMoRootfs thread

I'll test this in a minute

I actually just tried to drop it (andriodinstall.tar) file not the whole .rar on my sd card and I got that error. Also tried to drop it on my desktop and got the same error. I'm using winrar could that be the problem?

You extract the androidinstall.tar from within the rar file and drop it on your sd card in the folder.
Crap. Failure to launch. Reuploading file, give it about 20 minutes..
Sorry everyone

So, for 240x320 just put LCD Density to 120????
Also, when I try to extract with 7zip I get "data error in 'androidinstall.tar.' File is broken"
