The openmoko overlay does not have any ebuild for Android and i doubt any other overlay has so far. But if you are willing to provide ebuilds... ;-) > Isn't the Android(2.0) phone just somebody's Linux > stack? If so, is it an open/hackable embedded > linux stack for an Arm? And here the trouble starts. Android only uses the Linux kernel, but the userland has nothing to do with a GNU/Linux userland AFAIK. I had no deeper look, but you probably need another toolchain option... many ebuilds... and I'm not even sure you can completelty rebuild Android as some parts are proprietary IIRC. > James Sven
