Android OS running on Sharp Zaurus PDA

,----[ Quote ]
| Eschewing Android on a software emulator, the team at eu.edge instead turned 
| their attentions to another venerable Linux-based mobile device: Sharp’s 
| Zaurus SL-C760.  Only officially sold in Japan, the C760 has a 640 x 480 VGA 
| screen and uses a 400MHz Intel XScale processor together with flash storage.  
| By rebuilding the Android directory tree on a host PC to match that of the 
| emulator, then mount that as an NFS share on the Zaurus, they were able to 
| get the Google Phone platform to boot.
