May I assume that the LAVA jobs you guys will be submitting for the Galaxy Nexus will also use .img files (so that I don't need to handle file format conversion etc)
Yes, that would be best.
Great.
or is it useful for you to submitt tarballs and have them converted into .img by LAVA?
That would be rather useless because the tarballs wouldn't be what users get - but if that makes things easier for you we can build them.
Converting them would basically be a matter of unpacking them and using mkext4fs from the Android source tree to generate a filesystem image - but it's probably easier to just stick with img files.
no thanks, using the .img files direcly is so much easier. Even better if that's all you need anyway. :-)
Thanks!
