How to install on Toshiba AC100 (Android 2.1 - no Google Market)
This device only has Camangi Market. I have tried several ways to provide access to Google Market, to no avail. Toshiba now seem to have virtually abandoned it, having made their support forums inaccessible, very strange given it is their Folio 100 in netbook formfactor.
Trying to use the http://firefox.com/m link, just gives Your device is not supported' :(
Any suggestions appreciated.

If you can enable installing from 'Unknown sources' try http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mobile/releases/latest-beta/android-r7/en-US/fennec-4.0b5-en-US.eabi-arm.apk
Thank you sir.
However, it downloaded ok (after insisting on having another mozilla.org between pub & mobile), but only produces the useful message 'Application not installed'. I'm going to look at the logs, & try an adb install, but that will have to wait till the morning :)
Finally got back to this
adb install fennec-4.0b5-en-US.eabi-arm.apk

You can also try the nightly builds from here: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
Thanks gentlemen.
Update.
I've upgraded from 2.1 to 2.2, this has included an app called Toshiba Market, which appears to be very similar to the Google market. This Market has Firefox 4 available, though it does have an identity crisis, not knowing whether it's 4-1.0b2 (apk) or 4.0b2 (running), which installed & runs.
It does have some issues, but since these are not related to download or install, I'll raise another topic if required.
