your posts will be removed from the thread and you are running danger to be banned from XDA. Read the first post. I am doing my best to keep you posted about any progress. So please make use of this and help keeping XDA moderators happy!

 
*There was a big problem with CPU crashes that had made it impossible to use Linux on hd2 for a long time. This problem is solved by patching the bootloader HaRET

*With the working Linux kernel any kind of Linux based userspace can be used on hd2. This includes google android and any other Linux distribution.

*This is a work in progress! Please try to avoid posts like 'when is it done?' Such comments make every developer angry grrr!

*We need to write a Linux driver for the Elan B81 touchscreen in hd2 and many other things like net, audio, .. are also missing.

*We know about most available sources of Linux kernel code for the snapdragon devices. It is not necessary to point to evo, bravo, nexus etc.
