yeah, looks great even I tried the same thing earlier to build android
for ARMv6 instruction with separate tool chain but I got compiler
errors that's why I asked? Any ways its good to see when some one gets
succeeded in building Android for ARMv6.  One more thing I would like
to ask you is, whether your audio is working fine? are you using ALSA
driver? if yes, what are all the changes you made in android source
code (outside kernel) to make audio work. Please share your ideas.


Thanks,
Sujit
