> The device is shipped with a customized version of Android 2.2. The

> easy to override it

> The device is this one: http://www.goclever.net/en/tablet/356-TAB-I101-.html
> I bought two while in CZ for the KS/LinuxCon Europe for a bargain,
> so it would
> be nice to get it supported on Fedora ;)
>
> Android says it runs a kernel 2.6.32.9 zjd at dtlinuxserver #45.

> There isn't many information about the processor at the manufacturer's site:

> It seems, from the above, that it has an ARM11 CPU running at 1GHz.

> My question is:
>
> 1) would it be possible to use the existing uImage kernel to boot it
> with Fedora?
>
> 2) Does anyone know where I could get the arm subarch patches (if required)
> in order to compile a new kernel for it?
>
> Thanks,
