Well there's two versions of the RIL. One requires quite a bit of changes (as it's placed in the system image instead of the rootfs). This is known commonly as 'RIL2'. Catchy, I know . (See post #6 in the RIL thread for more info on ril2). The other RIL, ril1 if you will isn't getting updates any longer, so it's a little bit older - but functions within the rootfs. So sir stine pulled his RIL changes into the rootfs for the sake of getting that updated so people can run at least some version of the new RIL easily (rootfs update is pretty simple compared to the mucking you have to do for ril2 to work!)

Honest it'd be easier to just bind mount it using the froyo.user.conf. Actually, since the file isn't present (IIRC), you'll have to symlink (ln -s) it. Either way, if you're not always using ADB like me it's an easier method.

Also, /data is basically the data.img. It's where that file gets loop mounted when Android starts. Just like the system.ext2 file is loop mounted to /system .

Heh, don't read those they're terrible .

As for updates, not sure. There's some .35 kernel joy to play with as well as .39, and stine is hammering away at some issues on TI wifi... Haven't talked to him in a little while on it, but hopefully not too much more is holding back a new release... I won't say when, as I really do have no clue, but good lord I hope it's soon. Soo much new code!
