Why do you do this ?
Is it impossible to get it to work otherwise ?
(adb remount is not exactly difficult to do)
Its convenient because you can test a command knowing it will fail and then remount it if you need to.
I can only guess at how much more hassle for people trying to use a touchscreen for file management have.
(If there is something to do with breaking recovery etc then that is a valid reason).
There are benefits to a minimal amount of changes.
it makes things easy for all users... if u want more control over things & if u want to lock system in RO mode just save the following as a file in /system/etc/init.d/
Code:
#!/sbin/sh
/sbin/busybox mount -o remount,ro /system
So what would it need to do to get ap2sd working on this kernel? Is it the same as the Doom Kernel? I'm curious to see how the battery lasts with this kernel the 42 ftf and 36 baseband and libs
this is STOCK kernel... so battery life will be SAME as stock kernel...

It makes things significantly more difficult for me.
using init.d sucks supposed to use services. (Don't even have the mandatory start / stop / restart implimented if its done like it).
Don't get me wrong I am pleased though you released this (I never managed to extract the stock kernel from kernel.sin properly before).
Anyone wants stock (insecure/debuggable) kernel.
No hacks no other changes. (If you need to install superuser / su you can either install the zip from chainsdd's site from the freexperia recovery or install it manually over adb or via flashtool)
Probably want to install your own busybox as well as the one provided by SE is highly crippled. (push it to /system/xbin and then /system/xbin/busybox --install -s /system/xbin)
(The sdcard tweaks make my sdcard perform worse. / other tweaks I don't understand enough about to know whether they are good or bad). This feels smoother than the forest kernel I was using.
