[Q] Kernel Confusion

With all the 2.2.1 roms and porting of I9000 roms and multiiple versions of the different kernels being posted over the last few days I'm more than a bit confused.
Bionix Frost (2.2.1) originally needed (SDCard Fix) version of one of three kernels. now I don't know as it says all kernels supported.
Darkys 9.3 Vibrant Edition (2.2.1) comes with a standard 2.2 kernel. I'm using this with the old Dead Horse #53 and all is fine. Is there no need for Dead Horse 2.2.1? Wil Dead Horse 2.2.1 work?
Simply Galaxy/Sweet Honey (2.2.1) comes with Dead Horse 2.2.1 #73. Is this needed or can any 2.2 kernel work? or is SDCard mounting bad?
Stock JS5 (2.2.1) comes with stock 2.2 kernel.
Eugene's Dead Horse 2.2 2.2.1 kernel for I9000. Is this only needed for TRUE I9000 roms?
Eugene's reboot fix (services.jar). Is this only needed for TRUE I9000 roms?
All the above 2.2.1 roms. Do I need to use a I9000 theme or can I use a I9000 theme? Will it break the services.jar or something else?
Same questions about Vibrant 2.2 themes.
BTW, yes I read all th OP's.
Thanks

The latest dead horse will work with all 2.2 and 2.2.1 roms. That is all you need to know really. Use it. Its really fast and stable.
Other kernels you have to read to see if they support 2.2.1.

[Q] Kernel(s) and ROM Questions

as of right now im running SC 2.9.2 and EA16 kernel (i think). I was wondering if you can put the new EC10 or any of the new kernels with SuperClean? Ever since that source code released, the ROMS and Kernels are confusing me. Also is SuperClean considered AOSP or not?
thanks ahead of time!

[Q] Vibrant ROMS

Hey, I just got my 2.2 Vibrant rooted via SuperOneClick and I'm ready to try a custom ROM. Spent a lot of time reading and it seems Team Whiskeys Bionix V. My question is whats the difference or which one is better between Bionix-V 1.3.1 Gingerbread Edition and Bionix-V 1.3.1 TouchWiz Edition? Is Stock KA7 Kernel with Voodoo a good combo for em? And how do I flash the rom and the kernel?

[Q] Installing Onecosmic's ICS Port Android 4.0.3 RC1 on Galaxy S(gingerbread 2.3.5)

hello guys,
i have gingerbread 2.3.5 upgrade on my galaxy s directly from KIES currently installed, i want to apply the onecosmic ics ROM, is it safe to directly apply the rom...please mention the steps..im really confused...or shud i must have the CM7??...thanks
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Its better if you first flash 2.2, then speedmod (for recovery) then CM7, and then ICS.
Its a short process, i highly recommend you to do it, you can try on your ROM, but im not 100% sure it will work and you may brick your phone.
