https://github.com/radekp/qtmoko/blob/master/README There are also some scripts which tryto automate this prosa description, but I am not sure if they represent the last attempt: http://git.goldelico.com/?p=gta04-qtmoko.git;a=tree;f=goldelico;h=adbafe59ea1043c735bb85ec6dd1f77e2831b5a0;hb=166b3bcf5d53589a2c00752df7e10e54709551fe If I remember correctly, build failed because of two issues: * mounting loopback multiple times didn't work properly on my host (an i386 Debian inside Virtual Box) * the download of the required/assumed cross-gcc did not work (version is no longer available in embedian and I am not sure if/how it can be built from sources) > I would love to be able to use it as my daily phone :) > Me too!
