Edit: I believe the block that the kernel sits on is p14. So if someone is running the .215 leak, and can adb into root shell, can you run this command?
It should yield about an 8mb file named "215boot.img" and be placed on your external SD-Card. That's the file I need if its 8mb.

That's the OTA with the boot.img.p. I just need someone that is currently running .215 and is rooted and I'll pull it fairly quickly.

I just need to understand a couple of things.
I have SS 3.05, .211 as Stock Rom and .215 in Rom Slot 1 that I use as my daily Rom.
What do I have to do to install a JB rom in Rom Slot 2 (or others) and being able to use it without losing anything that I have now?
Do I have to change the kernel everytime? That won't be a problem.
Changing it more times will make me lose or break something?
Thanks.

Your three quarters of the way there. Do the following and your stock partition and Rom slot 1 will remain intact.Hello.

1. Boot up into your stock ROM (.211) and upgrade Safestrap to 3.07 (Must have this to handle the JB ROMS and also works with ICS ROMS)
2. Download the JB Rom that your interested in. I installed Hashcode's stock rooted ROM from the ROM section. I think that there are 2 or 3 others that have popped up in the last 24 hours also.
Here are four possibilities: (I've installed option c)
a.
b.
c.
d.
3. Install the JB Rom into Rom Slot 2.
4. Place the phone in Fastboot Mode (hold all three buttons at once from the off state).
5. Connect it to your computer and start the utility find in the OP.
6. Flash the JB Kernel to your phone
7. Restart the phone in Rom Slot 2 and set up your new JB install.
When you want to go back to stock ICS or an ICS based ROM (like in your ROM slot 1) just go back into fastboot and use the utility to flash the ICS kernel back.
My phone has been running flawlessly for the last 24 hours on JB using this method.

I assume, that If I am Stock ICS, and have a JB ROM in Slot 1 I would activate Slot 1 and then flash the JB kernel. And if I switch back to ICS as the active partition then flash ICS kernale and boot.
YES/NO/MAYBE???
thx

I understand it all, except the flash component. Question is: in SS which partition should be active when flashing?

Sorry, I just read this post a little closer. It does not matter what Rom slot is active when you flash the kernel. If you flash the JB kernel and try to boot an ICS Rom or Stock ICS then your phone will just sit there after after you boot past safestrap. It does not hurt anything but you will have to hold down all three buttons to get the phone to turn off and then you can restart the phone and switch to a JB ROM in safestrap. The same thing would happen if you try to boot a JB based Rom while you have the ICS Kernel flashed to your phone.

If your currently using safestrap then go back and read post 46 and the op. Between the two of them you should be able to figure it out.
