the Allwinner A20, amazingly has Virtualisation: it's a Cortex A7 (the baby brother of the A15). google "Xen allwinner A20" for instructions on how to set it up. i'm looking forward one day to trying out android where it belongs: as a highly restricted and compartmentalised "application" that can be run full-screen on the desktop of a trusted OS.
- mwcampbell 10y agoIt had also occurred to me that virtualization might be the best way to get Android running on an ARM-based EOMA68 computer, especially in a desktop or laptop housing. The Shashlik project (http://www.shashlik.io/ http://www.shashlik.io/) might be useful as a starting point for getting there. My one concern is that, in my experience with virtualization on a Windows PC, audio in a VM always has noticeable latency. But maybe it'll be better with Linux as the host OS, especially if the Android guest OS can be modified to cooperate more closely with the virtualization layer. Some equivalent of VirtIO for audio.
