loop_mount

<Camel> i have no intention of flashing /system either
<Camel> i'm just loop booting it
<SoulShadow> loop booting?
<Camel> mount -o loop /sdcard/syste.img /system
<SoulShadow> you could always mount it to tmpfs on system
<SoulShadow> lol
<x13thangelx> didnt know you could do that Camel. Nice to know
<SoulShadow> that means you have ICS till you reboot, right?
<Camel> well it's a little more involved than that
<x13thangelx> it fully boots and all right?
<Camel> SoulShadow: you dont need to reboot to switch roms
<Camel> x13thangelx: it's complicated. if you don't know a lot about how android boots, i dont recommend trying it, because no one is going to be able to help you
<SoulShadow> and because it's on /sdcard/ it's just as fast as regular NAND i'd imagine
<SoulShadow> because it is the NAND, just exFAT
<x13thangelx> I dont know alot but i know a little bit. Kind of interesting though
<Camel> you have to mangle /dev so it will let you do that, and you have to be very careful with /data
<Camel> just put up a tmpfs /data to be save
<Camel> safe
<Camel> it's not a full 2nd init, so you can't just go boot a normal aosp system.img and have it magically work
