Root EXT4 TEST ROM for Advanced Users

[Koumajutsu]

it looks like the XSR (BML and STL) driver is a low level device driver. JFFS2 is a filesystem driver that could already be in the kernel. I would think that the trick would be mounting a jffs2 image file to the system.

Edit: from what I've read, google's developers put YAFFS2 into the kernel

somewhat unrelated, but is there a way to mount the sdcard before /system and /data get mounted?

its not in the kernel, but you can make a module in the kernel source, similar to the way I made the ext4 modules

/sdcard

or

/sd-ext

i am sure either can be done in the init.rc

Would anyone be kind enough to put together a list of themes and kernels that we may use with this?

I am not sure about the themes that will work but I am pretty sure most Bloodawn and Blue's themes with flash and work fine with this.

If it does not work just let me know, it should not be hard to updated their install script


As for the kernel, I recomend updating to the kouma kernel because it supports ext4 and has newer better smaller modules, and disables some of the CIQ services
