No, it would be agnostic to Android versions. CPU of Galaxy S2 belongs to armv7a hardfloat, which is our main release target. Just a minute, I'll release a stage3 tarball. Benda

I'd make it incremental, by releasing only a full Gentoo environment (Gentoo RAP) as the first step. Then base on that, gather forces to attack the hard(-ware) problems you mentioned. Cheers, Benda

Additionally without USE=cron, when you emerge the next package etckeeper will think that the most recent package you emerged changed a file that it didn't if you manually changed a file. Once that's done just do: # etckeeper init -d /etc # bzcat /usr/share/doc/etckeeper-1.7/examples/bashrc.bz2 >> /etc/portage/bashrc And you're set. -- Doug Goldstein

Dear Arun, Arun Raghavan writes: > None of these worked for you? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Install > > I believe there were efforts to port to arbitrary non-Nexus devices as > well. Ah, get to understand what you have meant. I was not talking about replacing mobile devices with a GNU/Linux, not even dual booting. It was running GNU in parallel to Android, sharing the same Linux kernel and hardware, cooperating with each other. Cheers, Benda
