MerrukTechnology Kernel Version : 2.5

For Samsung GT-S5360 : `Galaxy Y Young`

This kernel source code repository has included tools to simplify building the kernel, create/install the environment and, eventually, compress the kernel image (zImage, RamDisk) after you make your modifications in the Boot directory.
When you execute the scripts you will see the verbose output for better understanding the processes.

This can be done in three steps:

* 1. Compiling: Build the kernel. There are 4 parameters to customize your build.
* 2. Preparing the environment: Set up the environment and decompress the RamDisk.
* 3. Kernel compression: Compress the kernel image with modifications in the boot directory or with default Merruk or Samsung files.

For compiling Merruk Technology kernel open the command prompt (CONSOLE) and see this :

Description	Meaning	Command	Parameter
New Compile/Update Existing Kernel	First Compile or Only Modded Codes	Kernel_Make	-MT
Specific 'CONFIG_FILE' Compile	Must be in /arch/arm/configs/	Kernel_Make	-CF totoro_brcm21553_05_defconfig
Clean Build (0 files already built)	Like first time, clean files and build	Kernel_Make	-CL
Specify number of prosessors	Script guesses that automatically	Kernel_Make	-CPU [Number of cores] (all cores by default)
Make the Totoro defconfig 05	menuconfig use the actual totoro	Kernel_Make	MENU

On first use of the Tools directory you need to set up the environment :

Usage:

cd ./Tools

./Install.sh [Parameter]

Parameters:

You can simply call this tool after you made changes in the 'Boot' directory (RamFS) :

Usage:

cd ./Tools

./Compress.sh [Parameter]

Parameters:

Your compressed kernel will be built as:

PDA.[parameter].tar	Odin file, search for a compatible version
Kernel.[parameter].Boot.img	Raw file, flash with 'dd' command
