is it possible that I just take out the zImage file and flash it first through flasher to get openmode first.
then follow terminal commands.

also I am just following these commands for a clean N9

flasher -f -F main.bin -F emmc.bin --erase-user-data

then without any restart the below command

Flasher -f -F main.bin -F EMMC.bin

and lastly taking out the zImage and rename file and

flasher -a main.bin -k zImage --flash-only=kernel -f -R

pls someone confirm if this can be done

regards

Well, You need to depmod the new kernel modules.
Instructions for flashing this kernel is linked in first post.

when you use tar, you need to be in the same directory as the tarfile you downloaded

You sure you need kernel plus?
