Hi!
I would like to find a kernel which supports loop devices (so I can run (chroot) to Arch Linux on my Android). I'm running SlimKat Android 4.4. Which kernels would be SlimKat Android 4.4 compatible and which of them does support loop devices?
Notice that I'm looking kernel for GT-I9300, the international S3, not any other so please do not post other kernels here!
Thank you for your answers!

Hello, i'm looking for a kernel with is compatible with Jellybean 4.2.1 and higher.
I always used siyah in combination with android revolution hd, but because siyah don't work with 4.2.1 i'm looking for other kernels to compare and choose the right one.
I found the following rom's:

Who can help me to find kernels who are compatible with android jelly bean 4.2.1??????
There are none!
Samsung haven't released the kernel source code so no one can make a kernel. Samsung release the code a while after releasing the rom, which unless I've missed something - they haven't released yet either
Edit... you're not taking about Google Android 4.2.1 btw. You're talking about Samsung builds based on android 4.2.1 which is a completely different thing.

I'm running cyanogenmod on my htc one and was wondering if the kernel supports loop devices for a linux install.

Tried using spirit rom 4..4.4 but gave error 7 in recovery mode.
I am on android 4..12 PhilZ-cwm-6-XWLSZ-OJC-5.15.-9
Tried looking his thread but can't seem to find an update?
CWM Base version 6.0.3.7
Build version 5.15.9 i9100
compiled 30 sept 2013
How do I update to android latest, 4.4.4 and preferably also phil version I used??
I can't seem to update! Please assist.
you need a kitkat compatible kernel.. browse spirit roms thread for compatible kernels
afaik philz is based on stock so it isnt compatible with kitkat roms (maybe wrong)
Does anyone here know if there is a i777 compatible kernel for the galaxy s2 i9100 5.1 lollipop roms . I have tried using Shift- Eternal- lollipop kernel. It was compatible with the i9100 5.0 lollipop CM Resurrection_remix ROM, but I have not been able to get it to work with the 5.1 release.. I have tried replacing the boot image file from cyanide L 5.1. It boots but there is no wifi or Mobile data.

No, sorry. @rogersb11's kernel is pretty much the only game in town now. It's possible (purely speculative) that you've run into problems because he builds his own kernel instead of CM's, and RR is basically CM with added features so you would need a pure CM kernel to port.
Again, that's a guess, as that's how it used to work. He's posted an update to his rom; did you try pulling the kernel from that update?
Steve, thanks for taking the time to reply. I was afraid that was the case. Rogerb11 first 5.1 release was without his lollipop kernel. he stated that he was having problems with his kernel with wifi. I tried porting that kernel and I believe that it just boot looped. His second release with his kernel booted, but then I experienced problems with wifi and mobile. Hopefully he will release a 5.1 standalone kernel that can be ported over to the i9100 ROMs.
The truth is I have not been able to find a stable lollipop rom yet for my phone. The closest was resolution remix 5.02. and I was wanting to try the 5.1 version. Will keep checking the forum. Thanks again
I have the kernel source for JellyBean 4.2.2 that boots cyanogenmod 10 and other jellybean ROMS. But when I use that kernel for Kitkat like Cyanogenmod 11 that doesn't work.
To make sure the problem is in the kernel I packed the cm11 boot.img with the jellybean kernel and it didn't boot.
So my question is what modifications does the source need for a newer android version ?
I posted it many times found no answer .
