You got it working with the autoinstaller?
If so, there are at least three guys that got it working with it...

Make that 4...kind of. I had to kill the android.ext.item file and recreate it on the device, but after that it works fine.

I know that you guys are not there yet, but if you want to talk to someone else about getting access to Marketplace, I know that the Archos 5 IT users hacked together a solution. I know this is an actual Android device, but Archos did some things very different and Android Marketplace was not available without some patching.

FYI theres a autoinstaller which will do almost everything automatically, you only need to flash the kernel and enable R&D mode on a computer manually.

EDIT: Forgot the link, here: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...postcount=1793

(will do a wiki page soon)

Found this Project "iDROID", they seem to have some kind of SDCard emulation working:

http://www.idroidproject.org/forum/index.php


Extract from Tutorial for iPhone:

http://www.idroidproject.org/forum/v...php?f=14&t=545

Code:
Step 4:
At this point, we have OpeniBoot and Android installed on our device. Let's create an SDCard.
In Linux (I prefer to use Ubuntu trough VMWare in Windows 7), open a Terminal window. In this window put the following commands:
CODE: SELECT ALL
cd ~/Desktop
dd if=/dev/zero of=sdcard.img bs=1024 count=500000
mkfs.ext2 sdcard.img


There should now be a file called 'sdcard.img' on your Ubuntu desktop. You can just drag this file from VMWare onto your actual desktop and it will be copied. Now transfer the file 'SDCard.img' from your desktop into '/private/var/' trough FileZilla. When this is done (it will take a while) set the permissions to 777.

That's it! Now you have Android thinking you have a 488MB SDCard mounted. If you want a bigger SDCard, you have to replace the number in "count=500000".

Step 5:
There are people who are having trouble with getting the SDCard to work with stuff they download from the Browser. To fix this issue, first try to download a file. It will say that you have unsufficient space on your SDCard. After you get this error, ADB into your device (how?) and type 'adb shell'. This will bring you into the terminal of the phone. You should now see '#' in the terminal.

Enter these commands:
CODE: SELECT ALL
chmod 6777 /sdcard
chmod 6777 /sdcard/download


Now try to redownload the file. It should not give you the insufficient space-error  Let's get the GApps working!

Step 6:
First of all, we need to transfer the GApps into Android. Download this script and this file. Unzip the 'installer.zip'. This will give you a *.sh file. Put the installer.sh file (the one you just extracted) and the other file you just downloaded (signed-dream_devphone_userdebug-ota-14721.zip) onto your Ubuntu(!) desktop. If you are using VMWare, you can just drag&drop it.

You also need to get the 'system.img' that you are using onto the Ubuntu desktop. The system.img is in the "idroid-release-0.2-3g_rooted_with_sd_emulation_backlight_and_dns_fixed" folder that we downloaded at step two. Drag the 'system.img' onto the Ubuntu desktop. 

Step 7:
When you got all the files ready, run 'installer.sh' with Terminal (in Ubuntu). After running the script successfully (make sure to run it as root! use 'sudo', else it will fail!) don't close Terminal just yet. Enter these commands:
CODE: SELECT ALL
cd ./Desktop
mkdir system
sudo mount -o loop system.img system
cd system/app
sudo chmod 6755 *.apk
cd ../..
sudo umount system


Step 8:
Now, your system.img file is ready. SSH it into your iPhone (boot into iPhone OS if you haven't already, use FileZilla to connect to your iPhone and go to '/private/var/', delete the current system.img and copy your new system.img into it. Be sure to set the permissions to 777 again!). Now boot into Android!
