Running Android from NAND on 3715 evm

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM3715

Hi,

I am wondering if it is possible to boot and run Android from NAND on the AM3715 evm. From here it looks like the general procedure for Linux exists and (Linux part, at least) should work: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/How_to_Flash_Linux_System_from_U-boot

However, I am wondering if Android will also work if I replace the rootfs.bz.tar with one produced by Android build.

Has anyone tried this before? Any pointers/suggestions/ideas will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Michael

I believe it should work. I am only wondering if the NAND partition layout on AM3715EVM (never saw it) is the same as that on OMAP3EVM, which is referred in the wiki above. If not, you have to change the address and size in the instructions accordingly.

NAND Partition layout should be same between OMAP35x and AM35x.

Thanks,
