I have successfully got Android running on a VMWare. I have a few
questions

1) The keyboard is painful. When in the shell I cannot CTRL-C to kill
logcat etc. Is there a way to fix the keyboard so it work properly?
2) How can I set up for debugging ie how exactly do I run adb?
3) Has anyone managed to forward the AT commands to a GSM modem
connected to a serial port?
