Lightbulb [KERNEL] root/init.d support for stock insecure kernel

Hello,

Some users requested this so I put it together as well as a template for devs to include with their kernels.

i927_rooted_initd_boot.tar.md5

Flash this via ODIN as usual.

The initial ramdisk can be found here on my github: android_samsung_i927_initrd
Feel free to use/modify this devs, just give credit.

Credit to: the provider of the insecure stripped down kernel
Da_G for his script in the ramdisk

Enjoy.

This kernel works great, provides root on stock ROM as expected and scripts run. Good work.

I do not have root after flashing this kernel.

Edit: I finally got it working by reflashing and rebooting.

If you don't mind, how did you go about getting init.d to work? I am working on a similar kernel but have not yet been able to get my scripts to run.
Want to thank me? Use this link and we both get 500 mb of dropbox space!

Droid Bionic - Stock JB - waiting for root
Acer Iconia A200 WiFi - Acerlicious ROM overclocked to 1.5ghz
Blackberry Curve 9330 - for work and stuck with it

Thanks! I actually looked through your git earlier today but must have read over that line. Looks very easy to get going on a Samsung device. I tried that exact line on my device but it didn't work unfortunately. I think I may have a work around but haven't tested it yet.

I can't seem to get rooted with this. I've got it stock besides have flashed CWM via Odin.

I should just be able to get root by flashing a custom ROM and kernel through CWM, right? This device is a little different than my last one.

this is for GB only if you are using ICS then install likekernel or other root ICS based kernel.
