Hi, I had also been porting Gingerbread to another ARMv5te platform, Marvell PXA310. I now have a running kernel and filesystem, hosted on https://sourceforge.net/projects/ipaq214android/
My case is a little bit different. I had never tried to port Froyo to it. I didn't used any code from Marvell, but as I didn't have any graphics acceleration (in Marvell's code for Froyo there are copybit libraries but Gingerbread doesn't support copybit well) and didn't implement any interfaces of opencore, I never get videos to play properly, and the graphics is really sluggish. So I would also like to know some information of opencore and the possibility to port copybit libraries to OpenGL ES.
