Hi, sorry I didn't notice your question earlier.
Goldfish is not an appropriate branch for your gphone. It is appropriate for the emulator. You need to check out the msm branch of the kernel in order to build for the gphone. You also need a pretty old kernel: the 2.6.27 tag fails to compile in the msm branch. The commit id I used to check out the kernel was c092738, as that's pretty close to the 1.0 release. (It's based on kernel version 2.6.25.) So I checked it out like so: git clone git://android.git.kernel.org/kernel/msm.git cd msm git checkout c092738 Now you can modify this kernel and compile it. To run it, you need to create a book image with it and a ramdisk; look for mkbootimg to do this, then use fastboot to boot the new kernel. One final thing: the wlan driver is a loadable kernel module, and loading a new kernel will cause the driver on the phone to fail to load. (If you look at logcat, you'll see messages about /proc/calibration being missing.) You'll need to rebuild this and replace the one on the phone with one that matches your kernel in order to use wifi with your own kernel. The source for the wifi driver is in the android source dir (not the kernel source dir), in system/wlan/ti/sta_... To rebuild it, you'll need to run: make KERNEL_DIR=/path/to/your/msm/kernel along with the ARCH=arm, CROSS_COMPILE= variables you used when you compiled the kernel. Hope that helps, --Juan On Thu, Aug 27, 2009 at 10:40 PM, quill <quill...@163.com> wrote: > I have download goldfish and modified some source code, then I compile > it successfully and get a zImage file. > My question is how to put it into my gphone?
