Required knowledge for building and mod Samsung GT-i9000 kernel

---

Hi, I would like to know what I have to learn in order to mod the stock kernel of GT-i9000, which last version (linux version 2.6.35) was written for the use in Gingerbread 2.3.6. My intention is to make it work in ICS or Jelly Bean Custom Roms, and then start tweaking and experimenting, but I need the basics first

I'm talking about knowledge specific to the kernel since I know how to make C programs and the structure of the android stack (Watched this someone? It's great!). Where I have to go? Websites specialized in the matter, ebooks to read, docs... By the moment I have downloaded and installed the CodeSourcery toolkit Samsung tells to install in the README file.

I expect to not completely brick my only sgs phone, but anyway I would like to know how to do it

EDIT: I edited a bit my question since I though it wasn't clear enough what I already know.

No one can help me? I don't expect to have the whole story, just to know what I have to learn :/ May be I'm not in the right subforum for this question. Full noob here at XDA xD

I do not know, but the kernel is here and probably the best I know?

Yup but is not because I though there was no kernel. I know there are a lot, Devil's, Semaphore... I just want to do it by myself

No,Good work.:banghead:

If you want to create a kernel for ics/jb, you should start with the default kernel of CM9/CM10, as most kernels for ics/jb are based on it. Then you could compare it to Semaphore, devil, ..., to see what they do differently.
