I tried working the Hello World application and the emulator freezes after it flashes the Android start screen. The home page is not shown. The last display on the console is

Waiting for HOME ('android.process.acore') to be launched...

I tried reinstalling Eclipse and Android again. It still did not work. Also the console does not show any errors. The log cat has the following errors:

06-18 20:39:11.543: ERROR/flash_image(544): can't find recovery partition 06-18 20:39:11.843: ERROR/vold(538): Error opening switch name path '/sys/class/switch/test2' (No such file or directory) 06-18 20:39:11.843: ERROR/vold(538): Error bootstrapping switch '/sys/class/switch/test2' (m) 06-18 20:39:11.843: ERROR/vold(538): Error opening switch name path '/sys/class/switch/test' (No such file or directory) 06-18 20:39:11.843: ERROR/vold(538): Error bootstrapping switch '/sys/class/switch/test' (m) 06-18 20:46:31.842: ERROR/MemoryHeapBase(578): error opening /dev/pmem: No such file or directory 06-18 20:46:31.892: ERROR/SurfaceFlinger(578): Couldn't open /sys/power/wait_for_fb_sleep or /sys/power/wait_for_fb_wake 06-18 20:46:32.313: ERROR/GLLogger(578): couldn't load library (Cannot find library) 06-18 20:46:33.634: ERROR/GLLogger(578): couldn't load library (Cannot find library)

The solution which worked for me is, when you get the message:

Waiting for HOME ('android.process.acore') to be launched...

Wait for few seconds and then right click on the project and click run as Android application once again.
