If you can get a kernel from an android ics image, you can use it in your ics build. In ics, the<br>

Fastboot does not even recognize the damn device :p</blockquote></div><div>Fastboot needs u-boot running fastboot command and in fastboot state.</div></div></blockquote><div>(Ok, i think i've to elaborate in this case, i'm using ubuntu 10.04 as per the recommended build environment. Plugging in my device and taking it into the fastboot state is when "fastboot devices" should list down the device. But it is not doing so. I'm guessing i'm going to have to try it in windows now)</div>
<div>Directly related to this, i was wondering, again because of looking at the tutorial, it says i'm supposed to run the images through the shell script mkfs.sh, which will give out system.img. Am i supposed to flash the img given out by the shell script or am i supposed to flash the img that has been derived from compiling the aosp code?</div>
