TIZEN:COMMMON
This profile is a good candidate to dig into tizen since it can be easly adapted to any hardware...

You can rebuild stable kernel for source and then rebase or patch over it :


 * https://github.com/rzr/linux/tree/sandbox/pcoval/devel-sunxi

Then use armv7l images from project and install Kernel on boot part and bootloaders

See this How To for more :
