I have never installed Android on a Raspberry Pi. I would be
interested in how that works. I expect that it will not work well
with the android version of MythTV. I think the limited amount of
memory will be a factor and I think android has a lot of overhead
that raspbian does not have. Also you may find the hardware assisted
deinterlace that we use with raspbian does not work on android.<br>
