hi guys,

something is very strange:
i flashed LP slim 5.0 from @Wajk (great rom so far) clean and fresh.
Now i discovered in the root directory a folder called d (and it refers to /sys/kernel/debug) with dozens of folders and hundreds/thousends of 0byte files.
Does anybody know what they are /where they came from and can i delete this d folder with all this folders/files???

Thx

The folder "/sys" contains information about the hardware and the linux system itself much like "/proc", which contains information about processes.
Those files you are seeing are part of the system, they are not really files i.e. they don't really exist on the phone, they are "virtual" and provide a way to read/write the mentioned information.
For more information just search for "procfs" and "sysfs" on the web.

Hope I could bring some clarification,
Sigi
