iPAQ 200/210/211/212/214 Android Porting
Project site: https://sourceforge.net/projects/ipaq214android/

Although some files may not be modified, it is recommended to update the files
also.

NOTE: If you don't have iPAQ 200/210/211/212/214 or equilivalent, good bye.
      For those who want to port Android to your device, you'd better see
      the three git trees.


Special Note
============

This is an attempt to create an installation method that doesn't require
partitioning and formatting SD card. It basically uses three ext4 disk images
that resemble the flash partitions of Android, and mounts them by loopback
devices.

Probably due to the use of a journalling filesystem (ext4) and loopback device,
the access time and runtime performance may be degraded and the system can be
less stable. So if you use/try this method, please report comments and/or bugs:

https://sourceforge.net/p/ipaq214android/discussion/dev/thread/2b582f33/


Install
=======

Just extract all the files inside the archive on the ROOT directory of the FAT
partition of the SD card.

All files requires about 256MB (actually less, so you can perhaps use a 256MB
card)


Extra Information
=================

You can refer to the Release Notes for more information.
