Hi, i have android booting from SD card. It wasn't that hard to make it work.
You will need SD with one ext3 partition. Download and unpack tarball from here [1] and boot with Qi [2]. First boot take quite a lot of time. Then it will be faster.
You can also compile from sources [3] and put the rootfs together yourself. You just have to put together what is in out/target/product/freerunner directory and add kernel (either the Sean's [4] or andy tracking[5]). I have attached my script which does this [6]. Last this is to modify init.rc file so that it mounts SD card, you can find it attached or here [7].
While Android boots or later you can attach to it with adb like this: ifconfig usb0 192.168.0.200 adb kill-server adb shell adb logcatI hope this helps us with killing bugs that Android on FR currently has (suspend, power off, GSM crashes, ...)
