An (almost) fully libre Galaxy S3
It's approaching three months since I started writing this blog post. In the mean time, life has gotten in the way of my work on U-Boot and Linux. One cool thing I've been working on is the Advanced Operating Systems course at UNSW - writing an operating system from (almost) scratch, based on the seL4 microkernel. That is probably worthy of its own blog post at a later point, though...
Since my last post on U-Boot, much has been achieved: U-Boot is now a usable (albeit slightly barebones) bootloader on the Galaxy S3. Now it's able to manage important stuff like battery state, charging status, and eMMC... and booting Linux successfully. But - as they say - it's not just about the destination - the journey is important, too!
