Android Emulator Flipped port

 

It is now possible to build android emulator, and launch it from the
phablet checkout.
It is using goldfish kernel as packaged in the Ubuntu Archive, and
builds everything else from scratch.
It's not packaged at the moment, but you can build & run it locally:

(in the phablet-dev-bootstrap setted up checkout)
$ repo sync
$ . ./build/envsetup.sh
$ lunch cm_goldfish-eng
$ make -j12
$ emulator -show-kernel

This should boot emulator and show kernel boot messages and that root
filesystem is properly mounted and booted. The boot log will look
something like this:
http://paste.ubuntu.com/6179801/

Current bugs:
* There is no ADB communication to the running Ubuntu
* No display / UI output

Pass:
* -gpu on
To enable GLES.

I'll be working on bringing up ADB and display output, at which point
it should become more useful.

Regards,

Dmitrijs.
