Running Android emulator up with custom system image

1.Run Terminal, and change to the 'tools' directory of the SDK
2.Type './android list target'
3.Note the 'id' number of the '2.1' target (in my case it's '7')
4.Type './android create avd -n eclair -t 7' (where 7 with the target number determined above if required)
5.You will be prompted to create a hardware profile. say YES and provide user defined values or leave as default.
6.Copy system.img to ~/.android/avd/eclair.avd/system.img
7.Type './emulator -avd eclair' command to run emulator with system.img! Note: initial boot may take a few minutes!

should you get any Java issues download the JDK for your system "jdk-6u14-windows-i586.exe"
