I have those modules compiled for some time. But since we don't suffer from lag caused by ridiculous file system, it's not really useful.
Cheers,

yep, i know there is no lag, but still, ext4 with disable barriers, noatime and other options can be very fast, and also ext4 uses more ram so it doesnt write temporary files that much on disk ( and also some more points in quadrant ) but thx anyway, what about btrfs? 2.6.29 already supported it, and also cant we use unesed RAM as swap or compcache maybe? thx
So, preview of SEtweak (pre1) is out!
It's quite incomplete, without Synaptics DT, not netfilter and OC. I also forgot to enable NTFS, sorry
Just a proof of concept for those unwilling to unlock bootloader.
X8gesture will insmod fine.
Cypress users: remove DT module because this kernel already includes it!
Includes CIFS and tun - who need it, will know, who doesn't need it/know, don't bother
Download: -not working-
FTF bundle. Place to flashtool\firmwares, in GUI select X8 SEtweak-pre1 FW and flash it.
FreeXperia logo instead of SE standard, and [email protected] instead of [email protected] are easiest way to see that you have custom kernel.
Forgot to note: this kernel has gingerbread ramdisk, meaning it's for GB ROMs! Maybe works on stock, but may won't be stable!
Will include:
* Cypress dualtouch
* Syaptics fake dual touch
* custom netfilter tables
* overclock
Standard SEtweak features:
* NTFS
* ext4
* swap
* USB OTG experimental
* tun/tap/CIFS
Best regards
Wow

Anyways, take a look at this:

I need to make some more tweaks, pack correct ramdisk and remove [email protected] machine/user name.

So, does this work on Gingerbread? Can't wait to test it out!
@Superuser.Angga
You have a kernel?
And I think the driver Blagus was referring to is sdio.ko (commonly found in /system/lib/modules)
you need to replace wifi module.

Is it ever possible for a X8 kernel in the future to automatically convert /system, /data and /cache into ext4? Because I remember Galaxy Ace forums has a kernel that does this. Just a question .

Lol nice evaluation.
I've been too busy to follow these changes recently. Btw what do you mean by nand initialization. We need to fix nand detection or something?
Send from my GingerDX using XDA App
I talked to FXP about that NAND init. and it seems it wasn't actually SE's mistake, that's why kernel works after all and NAND init is fine.

hi blagus, im just wondering when you will be able to upload the new kernel? i dont mean to be hasty its just sony x10,x10mini and x10 are flying with thier new kernels and we seem to be lagging behind sum what. again i dont mean this in a nasty way and please dont take offence to this post im very supportive of yours and the other devs beautiful work please let us know soon thanks bro and great job

Being part of FXP, my SEtweak will be based on FXP's kernel from github repo, and I'll include recovery in ramdisk as well.
It will, however, be modified and will have standard SEtweak features listed in first post.

Hmm... S1Boot actually handles partitions so I'm not sure... also, yaffs2 FS is made specially for NAND flash chips in phones, so ext4 shouldn't give much boost - absolute need for ext4 conversion is present only on Samsung phones which use rfs by default, and that's quite slow.

Why would we need million of recoveries? CWM is just fine and enough, and supports restoring from xRecovery.

I guess that the problem is that some devs didn´t migrate to CWM, and if we switch to this ROM which is using only CWM, then we need to back to stock, install xrecovery and then the other ROM , since CWM doesn´t install zip files made for xRecovery.

Well, ask ROM dev to convert amend script to edify, or do it yourself with aZuZu's tool. I will not include xRecovery because CWM supersedes it and it's official FXP's recovery.

You can convert the zip for xRecovery to for CWM by a simple tool. Get it here
I had tested it, and it's really easy and works fine.
is data2sd / data2ext for stock rooted xperia neo possible?
i hope someone could release something like this...
thanks...
AFAIK you can use "link2sd", you just need your phone rooted, a partition [ext(2/3/4)], and of course a FAT partitition too. There're guides over there, so, yes, it's possible in stock and rooted!
only apk files and dalvik cache are transfered using Link2sd.
What i want is the data partition are linked to sd.

I didn't tell its impossible.

regarding DualBoot, with the addition of BootManager to my kernels we now have a way to try n get dualbooting working on our devices...
i will use this thread to give u guys some links & info on dualbooting...
THIS INFO IS FOR DEVS/MODDERS/ROM COOKS ONLY!!!
the devs/cooks/modders can use this thread to discuss viable options/way in which we can achieve this...
DualBooting was introduced by zdzihu on Xperia X10:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1107111
the link in his thread is dead so i am uploading it here:
http://icxperia.com/doomlord/x10/dualboot/dualboot_2.0.A.0.504.zip
dual booting, for x10, basically involved storing data/files in ext2/ext4 images and then loop mounting them to /system, /data, /cache partitions after which we chrooted into to those systems to continue booting... there are some modifications required in ramdisk to acheive this... basically loop mounting...
here are some more links related to dual booting:

DooMLoRD Modded DUALBOOT ROMs for basebands 2.0.xx & 2.1.xx
[WIP][DEV] Dual/Multi Boot Project
[DualBoot] Special update.zip to get ext2 images mounted in Recovery
REMEMBER:
Dual Booting has only been tested on X10... on Xperia 2011 devices WE DO NOT HAVE SPLBOOTING, so u cannot splboot kernels!!... so the dual boot ROM HAS TO work on the same kernel as the one which resides on main boot partition of device...
as and when i am free i will try and get some rom working in dualboot mode...
hopefully we can get it working soon...
I know this a Noob question but is this for Unlocked bootloaders or locked,

Yeah, it will have to be as you need to edit the ramdisk for it?

ok, first we need to cinvert a rom to .ext2.
then we need to edit the ramdisk to boot from it

DooM, after your post I just read on turning a nandroid into a ext2 image, I think it would be best not to pursue the whole thing, as I don't think that many people would use it -> it is a ***** to do.
But why ext2? why not yaffs? I don't get it...

Okay, I have system.img (ext2) of Darkforest ROM 3.0.5, now what do I do?

There is a kernel for xperia active that supports this?
I think mesa and panik kernel support these functions, correct me if I'm wrong
but still not able to run the swap ... I can run swapper only in fat32
Also rage has swap but need to put the script for it in init.d, but tbh there really is no point in using swap...
I need a solution because I love the MIUI rom but after some time of use is heavy and slows
