Just wanted to share my flashable zip witch I used to flash kernels for my XMD,
Just rename the kernel u want to flash to boot.img and put it in the root of the zip and ur flashable zip is ready.
It's handy if u want to test kernels without PC.
Its tested with XM dual,
If u want to check if its workung for XM single just use root explorer and head to dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name and look for boot
If boot is shortcut to mmcblk0p17 then it will work
If not change the updater-script in the zip with the right one
See the attached pic
Enjoy.

It's better if you use kernel partition than boot partition
And you can use this script with all Xperia 2013:
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/Kernel");
It's better & safer this way

No, the Xperia M don't have a "kernel" partition and the boot image is stored in the boot partition.
Not every Xperia devices are the same.

a little contribution on this section
since there are some people having a problem on how to install odin flashable kernel in cwm (kernel.tar), so i made this simple tool to solve your problem
just like other kernel installer but this can extract tar file and install boot.img so what you have to do is just rename the tar file kernel into "kernel.tar" and put it on your sdcard (don't put inside any folder) then flash the kernel.tar-Installer.zip thru cwm and your done
Note: please don't blame me if you flashed a wrong kernel!! it's a brain.zip problem not the installer
thats all! i hope it can help you good day!

cwm uses busybox
and busybox can extract tar, zip, etc.
busybox can do more than an app.

What do you want to do with it?
If you're serious with it, you should visit the Android general and dev sections and read at least 10 post about it before asking in a device-specific section.

If you are making a custom STOCK based rom for xperia devices you dont need boot.img
Do this
1.put baserom.zip in original_update folder
2.start the kitchen and select make working folder it will ask to create a fake boot.img say yes and at the last the boot.img will deleted
I hope i have helped

I flashed the rom on my Liquid E2 with your boot.img but it doesn't boot. It doesn't load even the bootanimation
you must wipe data or factory reset and wipe chace before install it.. don't forget download patch and unpack rom stairway and overwrite the files.. if still doesn't work maybe you dont have cwm support kk:what:

bro, what tools to pack zImage and ramdisk? I have zImage and ramdisk which has been extracted.
I usually use cygwin to pack and unpack boot.img .. but there is no zimage.

You only have to drag and drop your boot.img over MTK_unpack.bat script.
After that in extracted folder you should have 5 files and 1 folder.
kernel and kernel_header are zimage files, the rest it's ramdisk
waiting stable version for cm11.
