Don't have a SD card ! can't it be loaded from the my STORAGE

If you really want to you could probably create an ext2 partition on "My Storage" - though it would cause issues with anything in WM that looks for data in "My Storage".

You'd also have to make changes to to 'default.txt' to point the loader at the other location, and there may be other issues within android where it's setup to look to the SD card.

It's not impossible. But really not a good idea right now. You don't need a big SD card, I'm using a spare 1G card that I had and it's got plenty of room. I picked that card up a few years ago for $12 and only payed $20 for my 16G I normally use...so I'm sure you can pick up a 1G card for next to nothing. Or just ask around locally, you may find someone like me that had one from an older phone laying around that they aren't using anymore.

Right now there's not much to see anyway. There are also a couple of devs talking about building an installer as well as the daily progress on getting drivers working. In a few days or weeks it will probably be a lot easier to get it up and running and there will be more to do once you get there.

anyway to get the .rar so we can just extract to storage and run haret??

i just created 2 partitions on my storage

1. primary - 7Gb - fat32 - label My storage - mounts ok in winmo and can put files on it and run them so its good

2. primary - 1Gb - ext2 - label Android - can write on it from linux

now the hard part to get haret/android find this partition

hmm

you should not test every new image/revision out there... there are maybe lots of bugs in it and unstable kernel revisions maybe could brick your phone! we make new andromnia package if its time... testing every revision from any user could be ending in revisions chaos and lots of broken phones... be carefull!

-insert your SD card in windows->format it to fat

-go to linux again, start gparted format to ext2

-type sudo nautilus in terminal (in ubuntu, don't know for other distributions)

-copy it from another USB drive or disk, make shure all files are there, copy it few times and merge files

-unmount card

-put it in omnia and start it first time it will take a while like 15 min. for me

....it should work :D ;) :D

is this the one with touchscreen support or not?

I complied it, tested it, but you need to format the SD card to ext2, you still have to copy the andromnia_rootfs directory your SD card, etc :D

guys the new kernel is very diffrent to the old... you cannot start it simply!

the old kernel is based on hpipaq214 and the new has omnia specific drivers and new mtype.

we can understand that this waiting is hard for you but android is so buggy at the moment...

since last kernel we worked on better touch support and few other things...

give us some days and you will have much more fun with android :D
