A quick Google search reveals the Dingoo carries an A320 MIPS processor. If Dingoo has been ported to any other devices, they probably share the same architecture. As you might already know, the 3DS has a an ARM processor, which is radically different, so porting it is probably out of the question.
Maybe, maybe not. Linux and Linux software is known for being highly portable. I haven't checked if it's been ported to any ARM hardware yet though.
 
I removed the aureinand part of gudenaurocks so it will only be a linux loader, because I haven't seen a normal arm9loaderhax version of the linux loader, and this way its easier to use it with a bootloader(like BootCtr9).

Probably should have done that myself... Oh well.
Just a tip, "an bootloader" is wrong; an is for words that start with a vowel. Most of the time that is.

You are missing the openssl dev libs on your host. If you are running ubuntu get the libssl-dev package:
Code:
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev
I am an idiot. *facepalm*

Thanks for helping such an idiot. :-/

Built, and working.

Not sure if anyone is interested, but I've built a version of the ARM9 Linux Loader that loads the binaries from folder called Linux instead of root. Youl still need to grab the binaries from xerpi's zip. This is essentially the same exact thing that @RednaxelaNnamtra posted, but loads the linux files from /Linux instead of root.
Probably seems pointless but i like too keep my root super clean.

After a few days of reverse engineering the 3DS OS' SPI, Codec and GPIO services I've finally managed to get the touchscreen working on Linux! I have to do some cleanups and I'll update the kernel :yay:
Thanks and any news for sd i hope
