# Porting Android Eclair on Beagle Board
Date : 1 January 2011

http://labs.embinux.org/index. php/Android-Eclair_porting_gui de_to_BeagleBoard
2.Before compile kernel. Don't forget to select USB Network Adapter at ...
DeviceDrivers -> Network device support -> USB Network Adapters
3.After made root-fs and Android-Linux kernel image. Put them in SD-Card.
4.At this point, Set primary DNS in ini.rc file
5.Booting Android.
6.For the first time, It might using some time to boot. After Android boot message was end. Then, Android Eclair could be use.
7.For using ethernet. Type these command on serial terminal.
8. I could access to Internet. It's just pain slow but working anyway.
# New SDK Android 3.0 API 11 installed !!
Date : 26 February 2011
OK. I love Android but their release was so fast and I can not catch up each release. Now just updated for Android SDK 3.0 API 11 that is design for tablet uses (Codename: Honeycomb) the problem about library that I found with last update seems to be fixed. Honeycomb emulator could be run on my machine but extremely slow. I should reconsidering about buying new pc.. (-_-)
