Sorry guys for the lack of updates. I don't have an N900 anymore as it was becoming impossible to use as a phone, so I had to part with it. I would have loved to keep it as a tinker box, but its a little too expensive for that for me.

Has anyone been able to boot the android 2.1 kernel and filesystem I posted for the N900?

bdogg, you'll be missed.

Actually, yeah, I tried to boot it, but nothing ever happened when I selected the bootmenu option. Eventually it would just boot into the regular maemo installation.

I did try to, but without the modules ( you didnt posted them i think ) i just get the nokia logo at startup and it hang there. I tried in R&D mode and non-R&D mode and it's the same problem. If i reflash the stock kernel i get the bootmenu prompt back. I'll compile a kernel today and see what happen.

Some reports : the phone now successfully boot with the compiled (patched) kernel and modules, and i did replace the new tsc2005.ko with the backed up one, but touchscreen isnt working under maemo. I can't pass the pincode screen :x

For android, i do have a little "tsc2005.ko: module symbol disagree" or something like this, then i see the android logo then it poweroff itself. Is the vfat partiton really needed ? i try to boot android from mmcblk1p2 (ext3) and mmcblk1p1 is used for maemo (ext3).

Edit : w00t, it did boot android, i had to be in R&D mode to do so. Wifi isnt working tought, i get an "disagree about version symbol" too on it.
