At this point, as far as I can tell, all efforts to run Android on the Nx0 depend on chrooting; I assume the existing rootfs is not suitable for direct booting from a stock or boot-menu-ized initfs, as at least power management is missing...

If anyone's had success that way, I'd certainly like to hear of it; but supposing that's not practical, it seems like making a very stripped ITOS (any version, but probably Diablo)-based rootfs that chroots up Android could work nicely.

This gets two benefits:

1. Get to Android faster, as you don't have to wait for Diablo to start, and then shut most of it back down.
2. Stepping-stone to combining whatever parts of ITOS are necessary into the Android rootfs, and directly booting.
3. Might reduce memory consumption from any unkillable things, but I'm not real sure we do gain here...

I'm not sure I follow exactly what qwerty12's planning for the FB update default, but whether automatic or manual, that needs switched at boot time for one of ITOS and Android, so that change could be made from initfs (bootmenu), or from the ITOS/stub rootfs, as appropriate.

Anyone know what elements of ITOS are still used? (A ps -e after stopping everything, but before starting Android would be a good start...)
