The boot device holds the files that are automatically loaded onto the root of your filesystem every time you boot (details below).


That's why the /init.rc will be replaced when the phone reboot.

You can follow the article below to make a new boot image, I don't have the linux enviroment. Could you please help us to make that kind of boot image, then we can flash it to the phone?

Interesting, that makes sense now though. However at the moment I need to compile mkbootimg, which is where I get lost cause I never have messed around with GIT and it is slightly confusing to me...

You can find that from the thread of xda-developers.

Hey guys,

If you install the latest version of JF's firmware it has busybox installed and you don't need to bother with this.
