More People have been trying to build a kernelimage (zImage) using the PR1.2 SDK sources for the N9 device.
So far without any (public) succes.
If anyone Can provide Info on how to build a booting image (my build Will not get past the Nokia logo, after the BSS (Big Scary Screen),
Please post here any input that Will help us build a booting kernel.

Thanks to Javispedro for his feedback.

This is my (preliminary) summ-up

apt-get install fiasco-gen
cd <extracted-kerne-dir>
Change the ./kernel/arch/arm/configs/rm581_defconfig
Do changes to C-sources directly in the kernel folders
dpkg-buildpackage
and the resulting zImage will be in ./debian/build/kernel/arch/arm/boot/zImage

You will need to flash first complete firmware image, and next the kernel image (NO reboot between)
flasher -F orgfirmware.bin -f
flasher -F orgfirmware.bin -k zImage --flash-only=kernel -f -R
(complete instructions are available here http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...complete+flash)

BE Aware that reflashing pr1.2 kernel brings some issues regarding software updates, you WILL need to complete a full flash before being able to do so, erasing all data on your phone.
Usual disclaimer re warranty and risk of a bricked phone does apply !

I see you corrected it. Much less confusing now. You're welcome.

It happens to everyone, but it was confusing. He seemed to take offense to having it pointed out. I hope he's not a developer with a bugtracker. Hoo boy!

Edit: I take that back--a thanks after all! I stand corrected and I take back my snarky comment. hehe Sorry, nieldk!

It's all good! ...now, let's get back to the topic at hand... I'm not confident about this, given the history with Nokia kernels. Mer tried it and failed ages ago even with the old Maemo kernels. They got SOMETHING to run but it was horribly crippled and everything since then, even with the NITdroid stuff, have had similar outcomes. So... anybody?
