Okay, I have Android built from the android-x86 source tree (http:// code.google.com/p/android-x86/) using the instructions on the wiki there. The only change I've made from the default is the addition of the M912 touchscreen patch from the M912 Android patches project (http://code.google.com/p/android-m912/).
Android is installed and booting from the hard drive on a real Gigabyte M912 netbook. The ethernet port is working and has received an IP address successfully from a DHCP server. I have Windows Vista machine on the same subnet; that Windows Vista machine is running Ubuntu 8.04 in a VMware Server 2.0 virtual machine. Both Windows Vista and the Ubuntu VM have the 1.5r3 SDK installed. I can't get adb to connect to and run a shell on the M912 using adb over Ethernet. The M912 can ping both the Vista machine and the Ubuntu VM by IP; both the Vista machine and the Ubuntu VM can ping the M912 by IP. When I try to connect to the adb on the M912, however the following happens: Vista machine: C:\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r3\tools>set ADBHOST=xx.xx.xx.xx C:\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r3\tools>adb kill-server C:\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r3\tools>adb devices * daemon not running. starting it now * * daemon started successfully * List of devices attached emulator-5554 device C:\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r3\tools>adb shell - exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: Bad address (14) - C:\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r3\tools>adb -s emulator-5554 shell - exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: Bad address (14) - >From Ubuntu 8.04 VM: ch...@marvin:~/android-sdk-linux_x86-1.5_r3/tools$ export ADBHOST=10.118.198.117 ch...@marvin:~/android-sdk-linux_x86-1.5_r3/tools$ ./adb kill-server ch...@marvin:~/android-sdk-linux_x86-1.5_r3/tools$ ./adb devices * daemon not running. starting it now * * daemon started successfully * List of devices attached emulator-5554 device ch...@marvin:~/android-sdk-linux_x86-1.5_r3/tools$ ./adb shell - exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: Bad address (14) - ch...@marvin:~/android-sdk-linux_x86-1.5_r3/tools$ ./adb -s emulator-5554 shell - exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: Bad address (14) - Am I doing something wrong? Can anyone point me in the right direction?
