[Q] loop device support - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

I have been trying to install arch linux along side my jedi invasion rom. However the kernel does not support loop devices. How do I either add loop support, or what kernels will work with this rom and support loop devices. I've been looking for an answer for 2 weeks on this subject with no luck what so ever. Thank you in advance for any information you can provide.

[Q] Bacon Bits 2.6.32.21 & Stock 2.6.32.17 Kernels support loop devices?

Do Bacon Bits 2.6.32.21 & Stock 2.6.32.17 Kernels support loop devices? I was informed that the Stock kernel did support loop devices and I have asked this questions on [MOD][SOLVED] Ubuntu install on G2 (which nothing is solved on) and [MISC] Vision BaconBits 0.3 threads but no one will answer me.
Ok, I was able to find out that both of these kernels DO support loop devices!
(checking under /dev/block shows loop devices present)
Thanks to all the people who looked at this post and NEVER bothered to reply.

Ask Cyanogen if you aren't getting an answer from the general public.
I don't even know what a loop device is lol.
This kernel DOES support loop devices!
This kernel DOES support loop devices!
Question: Where are these kernels located? For download

[Q] loop device support

is there a aosp kernel, or any kernel for that matter, for the incredible that has loop device support, this question was asked in other threads, but they did not pertain to the incredible.

[Q] Ubuntu on Galaxy Nexus

As simple as it is to get Ubuntu up and running on an android device I keep running into one issue. Loop device support. I have been trying to find a kernel to get this to work, but have yet to find one.
I have tried using stock rom and kernel as well as francos kernels (milestone5, and r275), trinity kernels (latest stable versions), and faux's kernels(latest stable version).
I would like to know if anyone is aware of a JB kernel for the Gnex that is already compiled with loop device support or if that anyone can confirm they have ran Ubuntu with any of these kernels so that I can narrow my search down to find the true issue if this is not where it is.

Dual Boot

Is it possible to dual boot in the Note 2 just like in the S3?:crying:

Not yet, you'll have to wait. The N7000 had dual boot too, so I guess it will come.
when is when?
S.O try to help?
until somebody like siyah or dorimanx picks up an interest in Note2, we won't have dual boot anytime soon. I admit I miss this feature, I had siyah kernel on my S2 but that didn't stop me from moving 2 Note2. Keep in mind that Note 2, for different reasons, will never b as popular as S2 or S3, so developers will have less incentives 2 invest in the time needed.
I did try coaxing Gokhanmoral to port his Kernel for Note 2 but he is reluctant to develop for a device he do not own. I will still try using my limited development understanding to work with him and other Kernel developers in porting atleast the dual boot part of his kernel.
Hi all,
I have been working on porting the dual boot feature from the S3 to our N2 for the last few weeks.
I Finished compiling the kernel this morning, and am busy testing it.
The first rom is booting fine.
I have finished cloning a rom to the second rom, and will try getting it booting tomorrow.
Gokhan moral said that if I can get the second rom booting, he will compile me a version of his custom dual boot recovery with all the dual boot features for our note 2.
Cheers
Corey
