 Just tested this, but having a problem.  Kernel seems to boot OK, and the
 Android splash comes up, but then seems to loop (animation starts,
 pauses, then starts again).

I've been experiencing just the same issue with this image, and trying the 
14.6 image is even worse, that white screens then reboots cyclically. :-(

This is with and SD card created as per:

 http://www.newlc.com/en/freerunner-mobile-which-support-android-cupcake

*apart* from the fact that parted tells me the 3rd partition is too large to 
be a FAT16 partition, so I've set it to be 256MB in size.

I'm beginning to wonder if it's related to the fact that it's a large SD card, 
so I'm going to try it with a much smaller one.

cheers,
Chris

Nope, same behaviour with freerunner-cupcake-snapshot-v6.jffs2, following the 
instructions to the letter.. :-(

it can probally be shrinked sure

I'll test latest image soon...

what would be neat is to install the whole system on the sd card and
boot on it ,
there are some hints on om wiki

it would be great, if possible, to have some hint on how to install it on a
sd card... imho it's more straight forward for testing (i guess people uses
the flash for main distro and sd for testing).
thanks

It's only necessary for me because of the size of the SD card and, as I 
mentioned, using your parted command with the SD card that ships with the FR I 
get the same behaviour too.

 I'll test latest image soon...

I'd love to hear what you find!

Agreed.

All the best!
Chris
