Hi!

i'm trying to use my custom kernel on avd, when i launch

./emulator -avd sgsp40 -kernel /home/rmbq/zImage -show-kernel -verbose

the output is:

emulator: found SDK root at /home/rmbq/android-sdk-linux

and it freeze.

there is this line:

emulator: Could not open file: (null)/system/build.prop: No such file or directory

which appear only when i use a custom kernel.

Anyone know how to solve?

thanks :)
