Something like this? commit 375d8d9f17433ade6afae91d4f34e170f0af04c4 Author: Pavel Date: Sun Nov 16 11:10:59 2014 +0100 Add basic documentation for n900 testing.

Another problem is lack of hackable userspace to run +on cellphone, even when kernel support is available. + +Openmoko was first phone running Linux with X.

Kernel patches were +relatively clean, and the core stuff is merged, unfortunately there's +quite a lot of non-core stuff and pieces of userland are closed +source; including some critical support such as bridge between CPU and +modem for voice calls. + +Unfortunately, that means that kernel development is hard, because it +is non-trivial to test all the various devices in the phone due to +lack of suitable userspace and userspace development is hard, because +there's no suitable kernel to work with. + +Here are instructions for getting usable userspace for kernel testing, +and suggestions for some tests. Setting up nfsroot (needs non-mainline +patch) is strongly recommended for development. + +I'm using Debian 7 for testing/development.
