Hi all I am trying to build kernel for galaxy S2 with no success and i need some help for it. I execute 2 steps first make config (c1_rev02_defconfig) and second make. My environment includes toolchines that provides with the source tree and i define the ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE macros before compilation. The compilation success and I receive zImage file (3.5MB to 4.6MB) depends on kernel version. What is the next step? How do i burn the new kernel to device? I tried to do it with odin but the device stuck. What about the new modules of the new kernel compilation? what about file system?
