10MB RAM Hack for Cyanogen 4.2.14.1 EASY =)

Updated ALL my links for Cyanogen 4.2.14.1 =)
MAKE YOUR ROM GO SUPER SPEED!!!!!

This is a little How To video on how to optimize and make your Cyanogen ROM the fastest, best, and zippiest ever.
All thanks go to Daproy over at XDA for hacking this from Cyanogen's kernel. Great work. =)

This little 10MB goes a LOOOONG way so do this ASAP!!! It helps! Trust =D

This ram hack wont work with certain phones. Specifically phone with a 3.x series radio wont be able to boot past the first boot screen with the ram hack boot.img installed. Can you add some sort of warning message somewhere?

This caveat applies to both the G1 and the 32B Magic. Some examples of the 3.x radio include the Canadian Rogers HTC Dream running the 3.22.20.17 or 3.22.26.17 radio. Those phones need a different kernel (32A/EBI1 kernel).

To install:
Of course your phone needs to be rooted in order for this to work.
Put the download onto the root (not in any folders) of your sd card.

Here's the 4.2.14.1 version:

Then open your Terminal Emulator app and here is what you will type pressing enter at the end of each line:
su
flash_image boot /sdcard/42141boot.img
reboot

Not recommended for people who do a lot of gaming on their phone's. The RAM comes from the GPU which is used for 3D graphics so.... If you're that guy, then you prolly want to pass =p

To remove, just flash the ROM again (NO wipe) =D

Now....
You have just given your G1 a little extra boost! More like a cold air intake then any significant engine mod. But hey, every little bit helps ENJOY =D

@RoyBarina

Yes you do.... Or you can just flash Dwang's ROMs or Super D and not have to worry about doing this easy step everytime (its built into their ROMs)

To all those asking about 2.x ROMs:

No, there is not, nor will there be a 10MB RAM hack.

The 2.x ROMs needs the GPU RAM.
