I don't know of anyone that has used haret on a PXA 310.

Unfortunately, my understanding is that Marvell does not publish the
register level specifications for the PXA chip.  As a result of this,
we have no way of knowing if haret needs to be changed or not to
support the cpu.

With docs, it probably takes a day or so.  Without docs, it could take
several months of dedicated reverse engineering.

Just launching haret should cause no issues (no warranty of course).
In particular, you'll want to run the steps outlined in the "Early
logging" section from
http://www.handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/HaRET_20Documentation
and forward the resulting haretlog.txt file to this list.

The mtype is determined by the linux kernel that you are trying to
run.  You're either going to find someone else that has ported linux
to your device - in which case, they'll list the mtype - or, you're
going to have to port linux yourself.  Porting linux requires advanced
C coding skills and advanced knowledge of the linux kernel internals.

You can find other developers familiar with Linux ports to handhelds
on irc at #htc-linux on irc.freenode.net.
