And I'm still confused about what your hardware is. I'm *guessing* that you have a development board with Windows CE running. Is it a standard development board? Or something customized? Can you share the technical specifications and at least a block level diagram?
Answer those questions on the mailing list, and I'm sure you'll be able to get better help.

start android os.
What am I asking links/tutorial from where I can start porting android on the platform. The platform is unknow, I have access using JTAG to processor to load the kernel and boot, I have access to see the chips on the board.

Now, on the other hand, if you are just fishing for information about embedded and android, I would suggest you buy a beaglebone. Android has been ported to it and you'll have a better idea of how things work by studying the related source code and hardware datasheets.

You can still use an older version of U-Boot if you need it on this platform.

Hi Cornel,
The CPU is : samsung s3c6410xh 66
S3C6410 will never die ... due to Tomasz Figa (tom3q) heroic effort :-).
We (mostly Tomasz with my little help) were trying to upstream the platform again - please follow Tomasz work on github:
https://github.com/tom3q/u-boot/commits/s3c64xx
The s3c6410 support there was up to date with mainline u-boot (up to v2013.10).
Unfortunately we are now a bit overworked, so feel free to take over the code and became s3c6410 board maintainer in mainline u-boot.
