eyes: Have you looked into this yet?

Could this be used to get your NITDroid to boot using uboot?

Beagles only have uboot, then super-jumbo runs and boots droid.. Why can't his boot UI be modified to run your Nitdroid with an N900 running uboot?

We can now have the best of both worlds - Droid & Meego!

Teorically it isn't so difficult to boot Nitdroid with u-boot

We need only a ramdisk file to pass to kernel during boot process.

In this ramdisk we insert an init.rc script (and other files like kernel modules, busybox, ..etc) which makes the first steps that actually multiboot does.

i'm really surprised this isn't hyped like nitdroid or meego. we get 5 new posts per hour if something happens with those and this thread hasn't even reached 20 posts in almost 5 days...

maybe OP should really change the title to something more teasing

And now we will one day have a UBS stick board called Raspberry Pi. From this article:

Braben has developed a tiny USB stick PC that has a HDMI port in one end and a USB port on the other. You plug it into a HDMI socket and then connect a keyboard via the USB port giving you a fully functioning machine running a version of [Ubuntu?] Linux. The cost? $25.
It uses a 700MHz ARM11 processor coupled with 128MB of RAM and runs OpenGL ES 2.0 allowing for decent graphics performance with 1080p output confirmed.

One Raspberry Pi Per Child?
