c.f., http://trac.ak-team.com/trac/browser...mpile.sh#L3991 for my latest notes.

If things implode at runtime, double-check (i.e., readelf) which TC is actually used to build your production kernel, as it happens to be completely different than the one used to build Nickel on my two devices ^^.
Hey thanks!

Quite helpful. I managed to compile the kernel and g_ether, and even nano and strace, just for fun.

Can I ask you what the most comfortable/less cumbersome method would it be to deploy this kernel I have compiled in a non-destructive way? I'd like to try making an image I could use. My touch is the one with internal emmc and an (externally accessible) SD card slot.

Answering davidfor's last message (I don't know how to quote a future message), that's exactly the problem I faced. The g_ether module seems to be there for another kernel, the only usable for me was the `arcotg_udc.ko' under the `/drivers/freescale' directory, but without the `g_ether' module it was pretty much useless.

Thanks all!
