Hello, Beagleboard community!
I am currently involved in a project that needs to do development work at the
kernel level make use of Android Gingerbread on top of Linux on a Qualcomm
board.
Due to a hardware issue we are faced with switching to use the beagleboard rev
C4 platforms for our endeavours.
What we need is a stable Linux kernel to run underneath Gingerbread.
At first we searched the web for a prebuilt solution, but found that TI uses a
different kernel (2.6.32 based). We also attempted to use the solution from
omapzoom, but that does not work on the beagleboard.
I am asking you guys for your opinion about what 2.6.35 derived kernel would be
the most stable to run underneath Android Gingerbread, and if you have any
previous experience on this subject that you can share with me.
Thank you,
Gabi Voiculescu

interesting, what board would that be?

well, the 2.6.35 kernel on omapzoom.org is the one under active development by
TI for gingerbread. Indeed they do not target the beagle but rather the zoom3,
but that does not mean one couldn't adapt it to run on the BB, did you try?

as said, I would go with the p-android-2.6.35 kernel on omapzoom.org
