Android ICS on tiny6410

Hi guys...
I bought a friendlyARM tiny 6410 development board.
http://www.friendlyarm.net/products/tiny6410
Now i want to install and run android "Ice Cream Sandwich" on it.
I try this tutorial:
http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html
My OS is(host): ubuntu 10.04 64bit
I was able to compile the source.
http://source.android.com/source/building.html
Now i have a directory named "out" in which there are some files and
directory, for example: "ramdisk.img"
At this point I have no idea how to put android on my tiny6410.
How can I boot?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Hi Francesco,

The following link might help you:

I would be very interested to run ICS on the Mini6410 which should be more
or less the same. Did you already managed to include all the drivers?

Hi Markus,
thank you for the answer. I have already followed this tutorial but I still
don't understand how apply that guide to android ICS.
I think that i must use Linux-2.6.36 kernel because this is the only one
kernel that contains all drivers of my board. Is that correct? Is it
possible run android ICS with 2.6.36 kernel? I need a new kernel?

The files I need are:

- azImage_n43
- rootfs_android.ext3
- rootfs_android.img
- rootfs_android-mlc2.ubi
- rootfs_android-slc.ubi

Hi,

S3C6410 has no GPU unit, and only has 256M RAM, it's impossible to run ICS.

but you can use Tiny210, ICS can work very well on it.

Hi mindee,
ICS requires a gpu to run? 
S3C6410 is a mobile processor, it doesn't matter? I know that s3c6410 can
run openGL and have 3D acceleration...so?

Hi Francesco,

I'm interested too in make it work in a 6410 board.

Can you share what you have at the moment?

Google for Tomasz Figa's OpenFIMG

@Juergen
I found this: 
http://forum.samdroid.net/f63/discussion-cyanogenmod-7-2-nightly-spica-a...
I'll take a look, thank you.

Eventually if will be impossible to run android 4.0 on my board, have
anyone informations about installing and run android 3.2 (or 3.1, 3.0) on
tiny6410? 

@Wazowski
I'm just started working with android. As soon as I have something I'll
share.

By the way I found this: http://www.cdpda.org.tw/blog/?p=145

But, I don't speak chinese...

I followed the terminal commands and I make succesfull: 

"make -j4"

In this guide isn't explained how to flash the *.img generated file.

@Francesco, the link you have found seems to be very straight to your goal.

I don't know chinesse too, but google helps a lot.

The chinesse aproach talks about a ubi file system and the kernel image, so
it seems to be anything you need to install on the 6410 board.

I'm working on it right now, I'll post any advance.

See you.

Hi again, 

following the chinesse method: http://www.cdpda.org.tw/blog/?p=145

At this moment I'm installing the repository of android 4.0.1 it seems to
take a long time... :(

So I'm at this point with no weird issues :)

I'm working with WMware Ubuntu and JDK1.7.0

Cheers

@Wazowski
Don't work with JDK1.7.0. You must use JDK1.6.
Regards.

@Francesco, any advance, any news?

Hi again,

now I'm stack at source compilation, I'm not able to set correctly the
armv5 settings, can anybody help with this?

Waz.

Well, 

after some "apt-get install <packages>" I was able to start compiling, so
in a few hours I will be able to post kernel compilation results...
