I was building a custom kernel for development on the multitouch driver. I have to create a kernel that loads the touchscreen driver as a module.
So I built a toolchain (thanks LeshaK for the wiki, toolchains are usually a pain-in-the-ass). I just wanted to build the "vanilla" samsung kernel, so I downloaded the samsung sources. However, I was a bit worried to see the initramfs removed in samsungs build script, but I built it anyway. The kernel was about 2M smaller then the original samsung kernel (no initramfs) but I installed it anywayMy spica rebooted immediately on startup (logically).
So I had a look at the initramfs in LeshaK's git, but I noticed that there were no sources/documentation there, only binaries. I also noticed a striking resemblance between the initramfs and the I5700 rootfs (is the initramfs a stripped copy of the rootfs?)
Can anybody (LeshaK?) tell me where to get the sources/documentation for the initramfs? Does anybody know what happened to the original samsung initramfs?
I know I can just use LeshaK's config and initramfs, I just think it would be very useful to have some information and sources...
