Default dcd's intercept kernel 0.4.0 [root/ext2/ext4/5.4mflops]

Here is a kernel for Froyo intercept.

Features:
root
busybox
ext2/ext4 support
FUSE support
CIFS support
branch prediction
ARM V6k processor extensions
FASTFPE floating point emulation

To be real honest, this kernel offers nothing that CrapKernel doesn't already offer. I am posting this early version to announce that I am working on intercept, and also track my own progress. Any feedback is appreciated.

Huge thanks to JosephMother, who all but built it for me. Also thanks to rxaaron for help along the way, joeykrim for the moment guides and .config references, and to everyone in #sdx-developers.

Changelog:
0.2.4:
first beta release
add ext2/ext4 support

0.2.5:
add FUSE support
add CIFS support
move to gcc 4.4.5
gcc flags -O3
optimize for arm1176jzf-s

0.3.0:
reduce kernel log buffer size
remove parallel port
include my busybox binary

0.4.0:
enable ARM V6k processor extensions
replace NWFPE with FASTFPE

Copy the zip to your sd card and install using a custom recovery. Will not work without custom recovery.

I beg to differ, you can pull the zimage from the zip file, place it on your sd card, and use terminal, connectbot, or adb to run:
flash_image boot /sdcard/zImage
But since you're an intercept rookie you're forgiven dcd
