Hello David, I read the new Porting Guide, please see my feedback below: - When porting to a new device a lot of things might get wrong. It will be great if the Porting Guide has a troubleshooting section, containing some common issues and suggestions. - It will be nice if the Porting Guide has information on the abootimg tool, e.g. how to change the command line, passed to the kernel when booting, etc. - In section "Device-specific changes" the arguments of the check-config tool are wrong. Its arguments are positional, so the proper command will be: check-config <defconfig file> -w
