AW: Xperia Z development, all roms, kernels and developing info

It really does. Think about it, the recovery is included in the RAMDISK there ia no need to have the physical files still in place once its running.
Short answer: we overwrite the stuff on the bootpartition on the fly from recovery.bootimg is included in updatezip and this way we updatr both rom and kernel.

The only thing I missed with HTC S-OFF and Sony is the ability to flash the boot through Recovery. Since the Recovery is within the Kernel I think it's never gonna happen with Xperia devices

I am currently on HTC right now but I don't find any tricks which relates on flashing a boot image to recovery partition. Are you trying to flash 2 types of kernel to simulate a dual boot?

You can always flash boot in recovery with Xperia devices

No, he just means that he wants to flash the kernel through recovery, not to recovery partition
