I was wondering if there is a way to change the new style of the file types that clockwork makes. I know its good to keep the filesystem (ie ext4) but if there is ever a problem that i know is not due to a corrupt system (like when you change the name of the file folder or etc) you cant seem to just flash the files manually with fastboot. so really im wondering can we convert these back to an .img that we can manually flash or is there nothing we can do? Is there another nandroid app that will make the relevant files in .img form (data.img, system.img, userdata.img and boot.img)?
How would you be able to make a system dump into a flashable .zip?
I read that it's in the META-INF folder and files but I have no seen any guides on how to create that.
Any help would be appreciated.
I was wondering if anyone can help me find out our partition table info from dev/block/mmcblk0 I don't know how to read the file I Google it a hundred different ways but can't find it for the Blaze...
What I'm trying to do is find what block is our recovery on so I can terminal command cwm touch onto it Cuz I only have the img file for it and don't have a Linux box to make it a flashable. Tar but I read you can term. Com. It into ur phone u just have to find out what block to send it to...
Anyways if it's like the S2 its on mmcblk8 or 18... So I need someone withe a sys dump or no how of the partition table info...
If anyone can help please do I just can't find this out thru google

O man ur a life saver thank you so much I'm gonna try to push it with terminal first if I can't ill pm u my Dropbox link to it I appreciate this truly
I'm not a Dev, I just flash alot.
hello guys,
First thing is I'm a noob here, totally noob, altough I have used galaxy fit for almost one year now and have tried many, many custom roms here, I think it is already the time that I'm making my own.
So I read many tutorial how to make a custom rom, with dsixda kitchen. I read there on the original thread that dsixda kitchen didn't support our device, but I was persistent, downloaded all the requisites, and skip skip, finally I understand now why, because the file system of DXKT7 is rfs (system.rfs), it must be converted into ext4, or at least has system.img (am I wrong?), so I search every tutorial about converting file system into ext4, and almost all suggest it should be done on the device itself, or should I say, flashing this stock rom via ODIN, root it, and then u can convert it into ext4.
isn't there any way to make it done in PC so I can start edit this rom in kitchen?
I read it somewhere about extracting initframs.cpio from zimage, please, if anyone know this way, please teach me how
any explanation are appreciated, thank u in advance guys, n sorry for my english

not very hard ,just extract initramfs.cpio from the zImage ,add this line
CONFIG_EXT4_FS=y in filesystems,then change Mount points in init.rc of Ramdisk
and then Format All Dev Blocks e.g. System,Data,Cache to ext4 !!

copy system.rfs and csc.rfs from a stock rom and boot.img from custom rom to ur original_update folder and extract it...follow onscreen instructions in the kitchen and use magiciso to extract system folder and then do the mods and all u want and pack it now it will work meta-inf folder will be autogenertaed but replace the update-binary in ur created rom from anyother custom rom and it will surely work

I have unpacked boot.img using advanced options in kitchen's menu, now I have folder ramdisk and zImage, what to do now to convert it to ext4?
oh, I followed ur instruction, extract system.rfs with magicIso and put them together with boot image (the one from stock) and others in original update folder and now I can deodex it.
my question, should I change the boot.img with custom rom's boot image so it can support ext4 file system or just go with the stock?
or how can I change the kernel?
edit : oh, after hours searching I just found this thread, everything I need is here--> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1414534
anyway thank u guys.

ur boot.img from stock is rfs format so it wont work if u use that...use boot.img from any custom rom that is also based on ur baseband version(DXKT7)man..the boot.img will automaticaly have the ext4 filesystem(in custom boot.img not stock)....kernel is later part of ur rom man better not go into that now .....copy boot.img from custom rom of ur baseband version then system.rfs and csc.rfs file from stock rom and do as i said above and dont forget to replace update-binary in ur rom after creating the output_zip file from any other custom rom or ur rom wont install
I'm in need of a complete /persist folder, mine got corrupted after an unsuccessful flash.
I would really appreciate if someone could zip it and upload it to me.
