Android Technical Demonstration
For evaluation purposes, Genesi provides an SD card image for booting a proof-of-concept Android system on Efika MX Smartbook and Smarttop platforms. The SD card is a pure demo environment - it will not install itself to the system or damage data on the PATA disk, however Genesi offers no warranties, guarantees or support for this image.
It is intended only as a proof-of-concept and demonstration of Android running on the Freescale i.MX515 and the Efika MX hardware, and does not represent production performance or feature set, nor any pledge of support for the Android platform, nor any pending release.
