I say "I'm only hosting this kernel, I don't even have a build environment for it" IIRC there was absolutely nothing special in how the kernel got built, according to the kind anonymous guy who provided it. For the poster some up, and his concerns about "flashing a kernel to N9 that may brick it": please read the readme.txt and other doc snippets on my cloud-7 site, there's no need to *flash* the kernel, you as well can load to RAM and execute in situ - will vaporize to nuttin on next powercycle (BEWARE! Any changes done to / and maybe working under openmode kernel still will cause secure mode aka stock aegis kernel go MALF on next boot, even when openmode kernel got RAM-loaded) cheers jOERG
