the reason i am asking this is, i have a prototype board with a 7"
capacitive multi touch screen, this board uses efi boot. And boots
into a basic text mode. I want to load android on it. I have very
little experience with efi boot. So i want to use the basic os on the
device to launch Android on top of it. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Gowtham
