Make the sd card: you have to use GParted for this part, and make 3 partitions on the SD CardFirst one is a FAT32 filesystem, corresponding to boot data, with around 100 MB. Second one is a EXT3 filesystem, corresponding to rootfs, and the third on is once again a FAT32 filesystem, corresponding to datas. The last 2 partitions use equally the remaining space on the SD card.
$ wget http://downloads.igep.es/android/froyo-2.2/mkmmc-android.sh
$ sudo ./mkmmc-android.sh &lt;device&gt; x-load-1.4.4-1.igep0020-sdcard.bin.ift u-boot-arm-2010.06-1.igep0020.bin uImage-android-2.6.32.bin boot.scr android-dm3730-froyo-2.2-20110223161010.tar.bz2 media-samples
the The device name here (&lt;device&gt;) is actually the name of the SDCard in your /dev/ folder. Try removing and inserting the card, and then type command ''dmesg '' in terminal in order to figure out which device name to use (for me it was /dev/sdb). Sample output of ''dmesg'' command: <pre>[ 111.583965] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] 990976 512-byte hardware sectors (507 MB) [ 111.587140] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off [ 111.587144] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] Mode Sense: 03 00 00 00 [ 111.587146] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through [ 111.591499] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] 990976 512-byte hardware sectors (507 MB) [ 111.595692] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off [ 111.595697] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] Mode Sense: 03 00 00 00 [ 111.595699] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through [ 111.595721] sdb: sdb1</pre><div>Note that the numbers are just a timestamp, and that this is the last few lines of the ''dmesg'' command output (you will more likely be in the same situation, given that the last peripheral hooked up to your machine wille be the SD Card).&nbsp;</div>
