Darky rom

Im a noob here, can anyone tell me if itll work on darky or does it have to be cm7? And how do you install it in the first place -.-, do i just flash it through recovermy mode? sorry for the noob questions :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] disclaimernotice:
WIP in the thread title means work in progress. If you are a beginner, you should by no means flash a rom that isn't even properly flashable yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zainasif:
Still not working.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kurre:
My advise, don't try it. Devs are just trying to get their phones to boot with ICS stuff. You won't get working ICS with these files..like many probably think..this development is at very early stage so it will take lots of time to haves something that really is for (almost) everyone :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] andrei16ro:
did you optained this when u flashed it on top of cm7 last nightlie?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] glavos:

"CONFIRMED! Samsung Galaxy SII, Galaxy NOTE and Galaxy Tab will Get Android 4.0.1 ICS Update, Galaxy S still pending..!"

but its not sure if they will do an update for sgs users :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hushtalk:
Indeed, it has NOT been confirmed that galaxy S will get 4.0.1, so that means there is still a chance,..

but if these guys want to get it working quicker, let them do it, they have proven to make better firmware then samsung at times :)

damn this is a hot thread for us I9000 users! can't wait to flash a stable version of this ICS, I just read from the Nexus S section damn they got a stable port already I'm guessing maybe for us tommorow(stable port)?

How is it compared to previous roms? honeycomb, gingerbread, froyo, eclair, donut?

I'm a newbie so I won't flash till its stable!

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Rahulrulez:
LOL, stop this.. better if we stick to the topic :)

@ Flozzo - Right now, we're deciding the proper way to get it booted.. Nexus S and Galaxy Nexus are MTD devices.. They've ramdisk and zImage inside boot.img itself. But for Galaxy S the thing is different, ramdisk is separated from boot.img. The first thing we've to do is correct boot path in ramdisk so that the device will load correct frameworks and files at the time of boot.

What I think is, Every developer will try to boot the device first before heading to the rest :) It is very important thing to do. :)

Nothing personal mate but Signature doesn't say everything :p It's true that I haven't been part of any real development work on XDA before but it's not like I'm not familiar with it :)
