Compiling Google Andriod for x86
February 22nd, 2009After downloading and running the Google Andriod vdi for Virtualbox I decided to try and compile the source myself. I’m following the directions on the andriod-porting Google group including trying to enable networking that didn’t work in the vdi file I downloaded.
I’ve just finished downloading the cupcake source tree from git that takes quite a while as I’m not able to get more than about 1 to 2 Mbit/s when downloading. I’ve also modified the kernel config to include the ‘AMD PCnet32 PCI support’ that is one of the network devices supported by Virtualbox.
Next step is to compile but that’s for another post.
