Hi. I just got the board yesterday. My goal is to install and run Android(2.3 is perfect) in my board with both SD/nand. Android was not installed in deafult NAND, so I first tried to install android using SD card(2GB) I downloaded Superboot6410-20111212.zip from ftp server and fuse it with my SD card(with SD flasher) And I put a image folder into sd card. In image folder, there are only Android folder and friendlyARM.ini file. I got Android folder from the CD(From B cd.. there are only zipped files in A cd). After all of them finished, I inserted sd card into the board and power cable. Set in SD card boot mode, and then turn the board on. At first, it shows calibration table so i did that. After that, an Android logo appeared and that's it.. it does not proceed anymore(no buzzer) I just include my ini file but i have no idea.. And just 1 more question.. Does Android OS include Android kernel so I dont need to build linux/Android kernel after i build the Android OS? Some instruction builds linux kernel before OS build but i dont get it.. thanks! #This line cannot be removed. by FriendlyARM(www.arm9.net) LCD-Mode = Yes LCD-Type = N43 CheckOneButton=No Action=Run OS= Android VerifyNandWrite=No StatusType = Beeper| LED #################### Linux ##################### Linux-BootLoader = superboot-6410.bin Linux-Kernel = Linux/zImage_n43 Linux-CommandLine = root=ubi0:FriendlyARM-root ubi.mtd=2 rootfstype=ubifs init=/linuxrc console=ttySAC0,115200 Linux-RootFs-InstallImage = Linux/rootfs_qtopia_qt4-mlc2.ubi Linux-RootFs-RunImage = Linux/rootfs_qtopia_qt4.ext3 ################### Android #################### Android-BootLoader = Android/superboot-20111212.bin Android-Kernel = Android/azImage_n43 Android-CommandLine = root=ubi0:FriendlyARM-root ubi.mtd=2 rootfstype=ubifs init=/linuxrc console=ttySAC0,115200 androidboot.console=s3c2410_serial0 Android-RootFs-InstallImage = Android/rootfs_android-mlc2.ubi Android-RootFs-RunImage = Android/rootfs_android.ext3 ################### WindowsCE6 ################# WindowsCE6-Bootloader= superboot-6410.bin WindowsCE6-BootLogo = WindowsCE6\bootlogo.bmp WindowsCE6-InstallImage = WindowsCE6\NK_n43-i.bin WindowsCE6-RunImage = WindowsCE6\NK_n43-i.bin #################### Ubuntu ##################### Ubuntu-BootLoader = superboot-6410.bin Ubuntu-Kernel = Ubuntu/uzImage_n43 Ubuntu-CommandLine = root=ubi0:FriendlyARM-root ubi.mtd=2 rootfstype=ubifs init=/linuxrc console=ttySAC0,115200 Ubuntu-RootFs-InstallImage = Ubuntu/rootfs_ubuntu-mlc2.ubi Ubuntu-RootFs-RunImage = Ubuntu/rootfs_ubuntu.ext3 ############### UserBin ################# UserBin-Image=WindowsCE/NK_n43-i.nb0 userBin-StartAddress=50100000
Booting error Tiny6410
nvm.. it works anyway. I changed ini file as install and sd card's data is installed in NAND flash. After i boot as NAND, android works. Still, Booting from SD card is not working but my board can run android anyway.. Just, can you guys tell me about the second question i mentioned earlier? And just 1 more question.. Does Android OS include Android kernel so I dont need to build linux/Android kernel after i build the Android OS? Some instruction builds linux kernel before OS build but i dont get it.. I look through OS source code and linux kernel source code(Both in CD) but i believe android OS source file does not include linux kernel source code..
Guys i still can't get it. Can someone please help me out? i really do not know what to do so as to be able to installed mine. It is really disturbing me.
Hi kyle, Android OS include its kernel. You can find it on 2nd DVD under folder images/Android and you can find Android kernel source on 1st DVD under folder Android. You can use already compiled kernel or you can make change in kernel code and compile by yourself.
Problem booting android root file system on friendlyarm Mini 6410: I am getting the below error msgs (repeating with different number) when I try to flash android rootfs from SD card. The display board shows "Android" image which seems processing/loading some application or data. "select 20964 (re-initialized>), adj 0, size 3268, to kill send sigkill to 20964 (re-initialized>), adj 0, size 3268 binder: release 20964:20964 transaction 77940 out, still active binder: 1826:1833 transaction failed 29189, size 4-0 binder: send failed reply for transaction 77940, target dead" Could anyone help on this and tell what is this error for and how can we fix this. Thanks
