As per omappedia [1], TI do provide the same Android for Beagleboard as for Jacinto6 EVM. Linux for Beagleboard is also available [2]. So the question is if beagleboard's u-boot able to switch CPU to HYP, or there are correspondent patches.

As I know there were built such setups on Renesas R-Car H2 and H3, and TI DRA7xx based boards (Lager, Salvator-X and Jacinto6 EVM board respectively) But there are two nasty nuances here: - those boards are not freely available - the complete setup sources are not public I guess there are other examples of such setup, but I'm not aware of them. Also I suppose you would build your system from the scratch anyway. - Which board should I buy to make this work?

[Xen-devel] Question about Xen on ARM
Hello, I would like to test xen on an ARM target with one linux (as dom0) and one android (as domU).My goal is to prototype a system with one critical application (on linux side) and one non critical gui application (on android side). If possible, I don't want to do porting job (driver writting). I only want to build the "applicative part". My questions are: - Is it possible?- Which board should I buy to make this work? Thanks, Regards. Christopher Lambert___ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xen.org https://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
