which file system did you had in mind. Be aware that android used the linux filesystem security mechanism so you would most likely need either ext2, ext3 or ext4 to run it. regarding partitioning that might depend a bit on the type of board you are using On Wed, Sep 25, 2013 at 9:30 AM, mohammad

Not sure why you would need to disassemble the bootloader to learn android development, since the bootloader has no relation to android and is only used to start the booting and calling the kernel which eventually calls android. Anyway .. Booting from a TI based system involves 4 elements: x-loa
