I've applied new anykernel 2.0 ramdisk and It works great also on cyano11. Now I I will carry out some changes ...

Thanks a lot, osm0sis, perfect job!

@Alkemix @boype @aosp @bsmitty83

Pushed some updater-script fixes to the example repo for a weird issue that kept AnyKernel2 from unpacking/repacking (at least) on TWRP 2.7:

Just pushed another commit replacing the binaries with statically linked ones since on some non-AOSP devices (or other unknown circumstances involving TWRP) dynamically linked binaries will seg fault in recovery:
https://github.com/osm0sis/AnyKernel...7612161ae194ef

Thanks @tdhite for asking about the binary linking in my Android Image Kitchen thread, which got me thinking about the execution from /tmp issue and how it could be related to that and the seg fault issues @boype reported. Also thanks @Modding.MyMind for hunting down more info from TWRP which verifies the seg fault issue and solution (below), and for testing to make sure the seg faults were resolved on his device with the new binaries.

Would seem any binary you try to use must be statically linked or it will cause problems amongst other devices when using them in TWRP.

Exclamation
@osm0sis, to add more clarity, the binaries are best to be statically linked when compiled because by doing so you package the needed library(ies) with the binary thus making it very diverse and usable across many different phone platforms because you aren't having to rely on high hopes as to whether or not they may have the needed files for the chosen binary to officially work. Comes down to dynamic versus static lol.

Pushed a new commit with the latest mkbootimg and unpackbootimg binaries and added board support:
https://github.com/osm0sis/AnyKernel...4340acbb0968b7

Binary patches on my mkbootimg repo:
https://github.com/osm0sis/mkbootimg/commits/master

Should help expand device support some more.

Just a quick question. Where would I put the modules I've compiled along with the zImage? in the ramdisk folder?

Good question!

Depends on what your purpose is. I know on a lot of devices' modules are large and should be pushed to /system since you wouldn't want them bloating up your ramdisk, but I also know some devices do include a few in their ramdisks.

Pushing them is easily accomplished with a little bit of shell (busybox mount /system and mv), so I didn't feel the need to build a method for it.

I just noticed today that @ak has started using AK2 () on his OnePlusOne kernel, and it uses modules, so you should be able to use his changes as a guide.

https://github.com/anarkia1976/AK-On...ab69242f1dc3f2

He put the modules in patch but you could just as easily give them their own top level (of the zip) directory and add it to the list near the top in anykernel.sh.

Another good one.

Not out of the box. You'd have to compile the tools you need for ARM (instead of unpackbootimg and mkbootimg) and swap them in the script.
