I cannot make because of my java-version. It’s openjdk6 on archlinux. I cannot rollback to 5 because there’s no such version. Anything I can do?

Hey, i have been reading up on android running on netbooks, and the couple of “DIY” posts i have seen have been for the eee pc. Is there any reason why? because i would LOVE to have this running on my Acer Aspire One. Is this possible? If so anyone got any ideas on how to do it?

Thanks in advance

I’m looking at porting this to my Lenovo Ideapad S10e, and was wondering what I would need to change in the xml file, and the build instructions to do this?

Addentum to my issue: I discovered several error messages atop the one where the boot stucks. They are:

ANDROID [ 4.011280] init: unable to open persistent property directory /data/property errno: 2
# I/installer( 1865): Waiting for device: /dev/block/sdb2

I don’t know it those are hints of what’s going wrong. I also have to tell you my comp is an asus eeePc 701 first gen (2gb sdd) with 2gb of RAM, actually running eeeBuntu 2.

Thanks again if you can help me.
