Root v1.1 up for testing ***Umph Kernelv1 Now With Oddball***

You shouldn't disable ext2/ext3 support in the kernel. This phone runs on ext3 filesystems lol!
got the idea from joemoe, OC Kernel-Optimus T look under the first feature. i think its only for like sd-ext partitions for data2ext. and turning off debugging and disabling ext2/ext3 will be the last thing i do so if it effs it up then its not a problem cuz i can just switch it back on
 
Alright. Yeah turning off debugging helps with speed somewhat. Me and my brother finally got a stock kernel buitl that boots, so we are going to start adding to it. Ended up it was how we put the zImage and intram together, the initram was at the wrong offset. But we got it fixed using dsixda's kitchen, and now my brother(eric) incorporated the way the zImage and initram was put together in the jitchen into his build script so we don't have to use the kitchen now!

yea he told me about that thats pretty cool, remember when ur compiling kernels tho that this phone doesnt make kernel specific wifi modules so dont freak out when u cant find em lol
 
Test 5 did not boot so I'm not even gonna try 6 or 7.
alright cool, i know why 4 broke wifi also, so were in good shape:D and wait can u test 7? 5 was a setting alone, 6 was 5+7, 7 is a setting alone
if 7 does or doesn't boot I've got 2 more tests then we'll have a final 1.1 :D
 
tickerguys got it going in his cm7 rom, once i get v1.1 done ill ask him how he did it, and it may seem that way but i dont think its unimportant i just want to get an update out, cuz its been a while, before i get into that.
still waiting on if 7 booted or not, anyone?


Im at work right now so ill try it when i get out.

sorry tried to post at work and forgot my password, and i was on break, 7 boots kinda, it gets to the boot animation but sat there doing that for like 10 min, so it doesn't hang at the moto logo but it definitively doesn't boot all the way atleast for me, could have been a cache issue but i doubt it.

Alright, 7 enabled high memory support, figured id give it a shot cyanogenmod uses it in their kernels. Finishing up something for ziggy then there's gunna be another test (disabling debugging) and then another for seeing if the ext2/3 is for the phone filesystem or a2sd
 
test 9 works but it breaks wifi
your freakin kidding me..i touched nothing but debugging and FS but i put em back..
gunna redo all the .o's and hopefully itl fix it. maybe what broke wifi in test4 got left behind in one
and if not, then i think it might be the JHASH3 i added, was the only thing i changed on the 20th between test3 where the kernel worked, and test 4 where it didnt (other than the setting in the config which i thought broke it, wifi dithering or and allocating wifi buffers)

Umph-Kernelv1.1_test10.zip

Are you calling make mrproper before doing the build? This will clean out all copiled files to start over fresh!

yea i did, i think i know what it is tho! its the only thing in the source that i changed from v3 with wifi working and v4 where it didnt..and its a common file i changed in the last v2 i was working on that wifi didnt work, doesnt seem like itd have anything to do with wifi but i think i know what it is. booting into ubuntu now to make a test

theres 2 things i see in testing number 12

1. it has to be installed from the root of the sd card (not really an issue though)
2. the wifi is still broken
