Greetings,
SirSocke

I'll teach you if you decide to shut up..
download the flasher, modules, kernel, and bootimg *if ure using bootmenu..*
first install kernel, then install modules then flasher..
and oh, first, download it from here then copy to phone and dpkg -i
and im not sure of the order, but if u have a conflict, try rearranging like flasher first then kernel then modules.. jus use ur brain.
and no, u can remove the kernel power v48 *older* but wont make any difference.. jus install em anyway, they'll be upgraded..

You did not supply a disksize_kb (or memlimit) parameter during modprobe. It can work like this too, but then it needs rzscontrol which we do not have:

Code:

modprobe ramzswap;
rzscontrol /dev/block/ramzswap0 --disksize_kb=32768 --init;
swapon /dev/block/ramzswap0;

Were the commands copy-pasted? In that case the swapon command might have came too soon after loading ramzswap. That's the reason you need to use "sleep 1" when enabling ramzswap on a script.
