This program has some issues, we recommand to use Arctools application instead, please check this page
Here is the application to enable Google Apps and Market on Archos Gen8 running Froyo gApps4Archos2.apk

Please note that we noticed some issues on the Market Application, as we have been experiencing a few force closes. The application is still usable.
Thanks to JBMM and Archoslounge for the news

Thank you for the tips Frédéric.
gApps4Archos2.apk application is not built by us, we are just sharing it with the community.
We have built a simple application to correct the Youtube issue, you can find it here:

Installation is OK on my Archos 101 with Froyo, but I could not run YouTube.
I solved this problem with this procedure found on another forum:
1. Download, install and start “android terminal emulator” from Market
2. Enter below lines in the app and finish each line with an enter
cd /data/test/froyo/system/app
rm YouTube.apk
3. Close the app (back out) and reboot
4. Download YouTube from Market.
Thanks for our work!

It works!!! Thank you for your sharing Frédéric.
fatjaiho,
There is a simpler method, you could use the application removal feature built in ArcTools, find YouTube.apk and delete it.
Hi, I used the cajl’s tutorial, but the Android market is not really stable. Will it be better if I use the .apk you’ll release? Thanks!
merci d’avance !! 😉
