Running homebrew/games would be quite hard, because the homebrew/games aren't designed to run on an OS, they assume they have direct hardware access. Therefore, we would be having the same problems that caused Windows to be crap when it still had native DOS compatibility. [[User:Muzer|Muzer]] 16:47, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

:Android does run a standard linux kernel but from what I hear the kernel is stripped of most drivers. The homebrew section obviously will need work for an "enviornment" to run in but it is part of the project. I figured I would use BootIt for now at least. I plan to jump into the project once Ubuntu 9.04 comes out. [[User:Pinball wizard|Pinball wizard]] 21:32, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

Help

I am definitely willing to help out, once the first version of Miight is out. I for one am very interested in Android.

However, doesn't Android just use the standard Linux kernel? If so, you won't need to write most of the device drivers, they are already there! (We can use the BootIt kernel).
