Finally, I finished creating my scripts & kernel for booting a rom on SD Card. Dual boot kernels, preinstalled roms, setup scripts, instructions are available below.
How to make a rom on SD Card
Requirements: 3.1 GB of free space on your internal SD Card.
New method to set up the rom, fast and easy. You can now boot 5 different roms
Here is some new kernels you can try, but the setup in the Aroma v2.3c package below

Hydracore v6.2 beta3 OC - dualboot kernel
http://www.mediafire.com/?0w852y7hl5yf8k8
Hydracore v5.4 - dualboot kernel
http://www.mediafire.com/?iawqi5picfcb9sm -STD
http://www.mediafire.com/?w18xigwkd9ya4no -OC
Download this current Aroma version
Version 2.3c http://www.mediafire.com/?5ym62wr7kta1u2o
- Added Timeout 15 seconds for the Boot Menu
- Fixed issue with the rom3 external in the Boot Menu
- Added Option to fix root in page 2 of the tools section.
Version 2.3b http://www.mediafire.com/?g3g8hdc2n0j3u9v
- Added Hydracore v4.3b kernels
- For some users, if you don't see the bootsdrom.cfg in the \sdcard\SDRoms folder, simply extract it from the Chuan_Dualboot_Aroma_v2.3b.zip (in the Default folder) and put the bootsdroms.cfig in the \sdcard\SDRoms to enable the dualboot roms.
- For some users, if you want to show the boot menu, you can put an empty file named "bootmenu_on" in the \sdcard\SDRoms folder.
Version 2.1b http://www.mediafire.com/?7aqibjh5nhgnh6m
- Added Hydracore v4.1b kernels
- Possible fix for the bootsdrom.cfg not being extracted for some users
Version 2.0 http://www.mediafire.com/?y0gsnzmwb7e8r6z
- Added Hydracore v3-5 kernels
- Fixed issue setting up the rom partition images on the external SDCard.
Version 1.9-1 http://www.mediafire.com/?foumtinhrhid2c6
- fixed the issue that the STD kernel always being flashed when select the OC one.
Version 1.9 http://www.mediafire.com/?ykvjahj8d32pcdv
- Added Hydracore v3-1 both OC and STD versions.
- Add boot menu options. This can be turned on and off in the "Set Default Booting Rom" section in the dualboot Aroma.
- More checking in the mount partitions tool to make sure we don't mess-up the phone rom. Again, if you see any error, don't flashing any rom/mod, otherwise it will mess up the main phone rom.
Version 1.8 http://www.mediafire.com/?lpxesvw31u3es6a
- Use a new method to mount the partitions for a rom on SDCard. Now you can directly flash new roms without messing up the phone rom.
- Clean up other versions, they seem to be obsolete now.
How to setup and flash a new rom for booting from SDCard
Please follow the instructions below, this is the most easiest ever!!! There is no need to modify the rom or mod before flashing with my tool.
1. Back up your data (just in case)
2. Reboot to recovery and flash Chuan_Dualboot_Aroma_v1.8.zip
- Select Tools section. Then select the rom slot you want. If this is the first time you use that rom slot you need to setup system, data, and cache images for the rom. In page 1 of the tool, check "Setup System" and "Setup data & cache" to setup the images. You need to do this only one time
- In page 2, select "Wipe system", "Wipe data", and "Wipe cache"
-And the most important one, select "Mount Partitions". Don't forget to select "Mount Partitions" otherwise it will overwrite the data and mess up your phone rom.
-Press Next until complete, and don't reboot the phone. (If you see any error, reboot in to recovery and try again)
3. Make sure you don't see any error in the step 2. then you can now flash any rom you like as normal. It will be flashed to the rom slot you just select in the step 2. Don't reboot after complete because you need to flash a dualboot kernel after.
4. Flash Chuan_Dualboot_Aroma_v1.8.zip again, then select "Set Default Booting Rom", then select the same rom slot in step 2.
- Then select "SDCard" as default, and select "Don't Share"
- Then click "Yes" for the popup "Flash a Dualboot Kernel?" to flash a dualboot kernel. You have to flash a dual-boot kernel because in step 3, the kernel has been changed after flashing a new rom.
- Next select "HydraCore v1-7" this can boot most roms, Or you can choose "Goku v1.5-11" only CM9 & TW.
- Click "Next" till the end, and reboot the phone.
5. Now the phone should boot in to a rom on your SDCard.
Tips: To switch the rom, flash Chuan_Dualboot_Aroma_v1.8.zip again, and then select "Phone" as default in the "Set Default Booting Rom" section.
Or you can keep pressing and un-pressing the HOME BUTTON at boot.
Enjoy flashing and new roms, and good luck to you!!!!!
Here is the tutorial how to flash mods/themes, just a little bit different from flashing the rom.
1. Back up your data (just in case), you may also backup the rom folder in the SDRoms folder you want to flash a mod.
2. Reboot to recovery and flash Chuan_Dualboot_Aroma_vXX.zip
- Select Tools section. Then select the rom slot you want. Skip Page 1, Then in page 2, select "Wipe dalvik-cache" only
-And the most important one, select "Mount Partitions". Don't forget to select "Mount Partitions" otherwise it will overwrite the data and mess up your phone rom.
-Press Next until complete, and don't reboot the phone. (If you see any error, reboot in to recovery and try again)
3. Make sure you don't see any error in the step 2. then you can now flash any mod you like as normal. It will be flashed to the rom slot you just select in the step 2.
- Click "Next" till the end, and reboot the phone.
4. Reboot the phone and boot the rom you want.
FAQ
1. I get an error, what should I do?
- Reboot into recovery, and start over
- If still get the error, Flash "HydraCore v1-7" kernel, and reboot into recovery, and start over
- If still get the error, save the recovery log and post it here.
2. How do I reset the rom on SDCard?
- Flash Chuan_Dualboot_Aroma_v1.8.zip, then select "Tools", select the rom slot you want to reset, skip page 1, then select "Wipe data", and "Wipe cache" in page 2. Then next until finish.

WARNING: I've tested and used my scripts and modified kernels on my phone without any problem. There is always a risk when flashing a kernel or a new rom, so flash as your own risk. I have no responsible for any damage to your phone
Pre-install Roms
To make it easier, I have some pre-install roms on SD Card for you guys. Just extract it then it's ready to go.
1. flash pre-install rom
2. flash dualboot kernel
3. reboot
Now you should be able to boot your current rom (samsung ics only) and the pre-install rom on your sd card. Keep press/unpress the home button at boot until you see the boot animation to switch the rom. Check the log and the config file in the SDRoms for more details.

Code:
Version 1.7 [url]http://www.mediafire.com/?5w03c1q49wppbgb[/url]
-Added HydraCore v1 - big thanks to g.lewarne who makes this universal kernel working for all roms TW, MIUI, CM9, CM10. Now you can use this kernel to dual boot any rom you want.
-Added latest CM10 kernel.
[SIZE="3"][B][COLOR="blue"]How to modify rom and directly flash it using the Mount Partitions Tool[/COLOR][/B][/SIZE].
[COLOR="DarkOrange"]Most of MIUI,CM9,CM10 roms have the format command which is not safe for directly flashing a rom on SD Card. Follow this instruction to remove the format command.[/COLOR]
1. Extract the rom
2. Then edit the file META-INIF\com\google\android\updater-script using Notepad++
3. Take out the format command [B]format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p9", "0");[/B] if there is any
You may also take out all the mount, unmount, kernel flashing, and modem flashing or any command that is related to mmcblk.
4. Compress/Zip the rom back. Now you have the modified rom.
5. Now it ready to flash using the mount tools. Boot recovery, run my dualboot aroma, select tools.., select a rom to flash, in page 1 select wipe system, data, and cache, then in Page 2 select mount partitions for rom on SDCard. Don't reboot after run the script. If don't see any error or fail. Then go ahead flash the modified rom. It should directly flash it into the rom you just pick. Now flash a dualboot kernel you like and enjoy your new roms.
Note: Do the same for any mod, except you don't need to modify the mod, just run the mount tool and flash the mod.
[SIZE="3"][B][COLOR="blue"]How to Setup[/COLOR][/B][/SIZE]
1. Flash a rom you want, make sure follow the instructions of the rom you want to flash. Otherwise you will get a brick.
2. Run (flash) Chuan_Dualboot_Aroma_vXX.zip, then select Tools, then select rom slot (1 out of 5 slots) you want, then select "Copy system to SDCard" and "Wipe data & cache". This tool will copy your current rom to SD Card and setup the data.img and cache.img for the rom on SDCard. I takes about 5 to 10 minutes to process. [COLOR="red"](don't reboot after completion)[/COLOR]
3. Repeat the step 1 & 2 if for the second, third, fourth, or fifth rom except you need to pick a new rom slot. [COLOR="red"](don't reboot after completion)[/COLOR]
4. Run (flash) Chuan_Dualboot_Aroma_vXX.zip again. Select Default Booting Rom, then select the rom slot you want to boot, then select "SDCard" as default. Then Click Yes to flash a dualboot kernel, pick a kernel you want (make sure it's compatible with the rom you want to boot). [B]Now Reboot[/B], and the phone should boot into a rom on SDCard.

- Added Wipe Tools for the rom on SD Card
- Added Mount partition Tool for the rom on SD Card. This allows you to directly flash a rom or mod on the rom on SD Card. Now you can easily flash a new rom on SD Card, [COLOR="Red"]but be careful if you want to use this tool to flash CM9/CM10 roms. There's a format command there, you need to take out before flashing those roms.[/COLOR]
- Some fixes for the Tools sections.

-----------Old Method---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Backup your current rom and your data just in case something goes wrong and you can recover your data. You can skip this step if you don't need to save anything.
2. Flash any rom you want like you've been doing. This rom will be a rom on your internal SD Card. Just follow the guild from Dev's of the rom you want to flash. Be careful about EMMC brick, please don't wipe using an unsafe kernel. (Skip this step if you want your current rom to be the rom on your SD Card)
Some roms don't auto get root, so just to be sure you can flash this [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?8adhwsporsdd61w"]CWM-SuperSU-v0.95.zip[/URL]
3. Copy rom partition to internal SD Card. You can do it partially or all by flashing the following scripts.
- [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?te8soummj0b9iqv"]copy_rom_to_sdcard_system.zip[/URL] - copy system partition to SD Card. ([COLOR="Blue"]recommend flashing this only[/COLOR])
- [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?4c6de3h1e8hx4po"]copy_rom_to_sdcard_data.zip[/URL] - copy data partition to SD Card. ([COLOR="Red"]not recommended[/COLOR] unless you want to copy your current apps & data to SD card and want to restore back from the rom on SD card later)
- [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?vb5l6nc8qr4qlno"]copy_rom_to_sdcard_cache.zip[/URL] - copy cache partition to SD Card. [COLOR="Red"](not recommended[/COLOR], another script will take care of this)
- [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?dvapmhow79pe1v0"]copy_rom_to_sdcard_all.zip[/URL] - copy all rom partitions to SD Card. ([COLOR="Red"]not recommended[/COLOR], take long time to do)
4. Flash [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?7q8ml0muqhh930m"]sd_internal_rom1_wipe_data_cache.zip[/URL] to setup a blank data.img and cache.img for the rom on SD card. (only flash this if you didn't flash the above copy_rom_to_sdcard_data.zip and copy_rom_to_sdcard_cache.zip, or copy_rom_to_sdcard_all.zip)
5. Setup the config file for your rom on SD card.
- Flash [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?x1jsiec6c7g78qk"]sd_rom_config_setup_3.2b_default_phoneRom.zip[/URL] to setup the config file for the SD Rom and boot your phone rom as default.
- Or Flash [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?318jat6mkpjjec5"]sd_rom_config_setup_3.2b_default_sdcardRom.zip[/URL] to setup the config file for the SD Rom and boot your rom on the SD Card as default.
[COLOR="Blue"] Remember: if the phoneRom and the sdcardRom are the same base, or same platform (CM9, or ICS, or GB). You can switch the rom by keep press/unpress the home button at boot. [/COLOR]
6. Flash dual boot support kernel to boot the rom on the sdcard. You can flash one of the flowing compatible kernels.
[COLOR="Red"]Remember: Do not flash the CM9 kernel to boot the Samsung ICS rom and versus [/COLOR]

7. Reboot and test the rom on your SD Card. Make sure you test both roms on the SD Card and your phone to make sure they are working.
8. Once you are able to boot the rom on the SD Card, You can now restore your old rom, or flash any new rom you want.
Remember: If my dual boot kernel doesn't support your new rom, you need to flash my dual boot support kernel to boot the rom on SD card, and you need to flash a compatible kernel with your phone rom to boot your phone rom back.
Please note that my current kernels with dual boot support work with Samsung ICS or CM9 roms. I have not tested them with any GB rom yet, so be careful when you flash them on a GB rom or a different platform rom.

July-26-12
- Add new kernel GL NOTECORE V8 with dual boot support [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?6p5wapyps7q5qe8"]download link[/URL]
- Re-word the instructions. Much simple and faster to set-up.
Version 3.2
- Updated to SpeedMod-K3-9 source
- Optimized booting time - (about 6 seconds faster than original SpeedMod-K3-9)
- Add feature to safely share data partition if the two roms are the same base but different mod/theme.
- Update SD Rom by extracting system and data folder to /sdcard/SDRoms/update/ - experiment (report if it works for you)
Version 3.1:
- Add feature to put the update.zip in the /sdcard/SDRoms/update/ folder for flashing a mod/theme on the SD Rom.
- Create a file "wipe_dalvik-cache" file in the /sdcard/SDRoms/update/ folder to wipe dalvik-cache on the SD Rom. (simple and fast)
or simply flash this [url]http://www.mediafire.com/?690wyv2zt5j7185[/url] ro wipe dalvik-cache on the SD Rom.
Version 3:
- Updated to SpeedMod-K3-7 source
- Add script to wipe data & cache for rom1 on SD Card. You can also save 1.1 GB space with this. This contains empty data and cache partition images and extract them on your SD Card. You can also save a lot of time & space by simply copy the system to sd card, and then flash sd_internal_rom1_wipe_data_cache.zip
Version 2:
- Updated to SpeedMod-K3-6 source
- Add default rom value in bootsdrom.cfg. Now you can set default rom (phone or sdrom) by changing the default value in the config file.
- Add CMW restore scripts to restore sdrom back to phone rom.
- Some minor tweaks.
Version 1:
- Initial release
- Fix the mounting bug (swaping external and internal sd card) - Kernel/CWM
Could you make an app?
It would be easy to make some $.
Not right now, this requires some kernel modification which is not easy to do in an application. The app may help to flash the rom on SD card faster and easier, but can't change the kernel itself.

Good luck for this project
Will try it out sometime...
Nice concept.. I always want to have dual boot for Samsung and AOSP/CM based ROM... But now, wait until we see a one-for-all kernel like siyah to be developed for our Notes..
Wow ! Waiting for such a thing !
Will install it and see ....
How can I delete the Rom on SD again, if I don´t want it anymore?
And to be sure the SD means the external SD.
thanks for answer
Edit: sorry to say, but ur links are 404 Error, can´t download anything
Just delete the SDRoms folder on your internal SD card. SD means internal SD. You can move it to external SD by changing the bootsdrom.cfg values.

With changing that value, is it possible to get triple boot?
I imagine to have:
- CM/AOKP in the main ROM
- custom ROM based on TW on internal SD
- official ROM on external SD.
Download link
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?xc03yg1wjjzziys
I would give it a try if the download links would work
and thanks for the quick answer
I think it´s really cool to have two Roms on our Note to play with
Edit: too late, first Link is back again
CM/AOKP is not supported right now.
Here is an example of the values in the bootsdrom.cfg file
rom=/sdmnt/SDRoms/rom1
system=/sdmnt/SDRoms/rom1/system.img
data=/sdmnt/SDRoms/rom1/data.img
cache=/sdmnt/SDRoms/rom1/cache.img
After you are done copy rom to SD card, you can rename the rom1 to rom2 in the SDRoms folder. Then change the values in the config file like this
rom=/sdmnt/SDRoms/rom2
system=/sdmnt/SDRoms/rom2/system.img
data=/sdmnt/SDRoms/rom2/data.img
cache=/sdmnt/SDRoms/rom2/cache.img
If you want to use external SD instead.
Copy the SDRoms folder to your external SD
then change the config file values like this. sdmnt1 means external SD.
rom=/sdmnt1/SDRoms/rom1
system=/sdmnt1/SDRoms/rom1/system.img
data=/sdmnt1/SDRoms/rom1/data.img
cache=/sdmnt1/SDRoms/rom1/cache.img

Wait for my next update
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2
I tried the setup.zip but the is no bootsdrom.cfg file in SD Rom folder
I tried it twice.
so I cannot boot the SD Rom
any suggestions?
no root! for phone Rom
for first problem I copied over the bootsdrom.cfg in the folder and it works,
booted the SD Rom and it has still root
but now I can´t boot Phone Rom with holding Homebutton
now I can switch between the Roms by rename bootsdrom.cfg to .bak
but it always been optimizing the apps when switch the Roms
I get root back for the Phone Rom :laugh:
I get it nearly all to work :laugh:
only things are that the homebutten at booting doesn´t work, have to rename the bootsdrom.cfg into .bak for booting phone rom
and
the optimizing all apps at switch between the roms
but therefor it´s REALLY cool and I THANK YOU again for your GREAT WORK :good:
I always searched for a thing like this
Really great work
Looking forward ti seeing you porting it to cm9 kernel
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
a few little things that I noticed:
- after each switch I have to decide which Home Launcher I want to use
- the widgets I place on Nova Launcher are the same on both Roms, so I guess if I use the same Launcher I can´t use different Widgets by default
- the Icon Quickpanel Settings is shown in one Rom but in the other Rom the Icon is shown as not installed, so I have to put it again from app drawer to the homescreen
- and I tried to copy the files from sd_rom_setup into the right folders so that the homebutton work, but it doesn´t work
realy great job mister...
will learn how to implement..
now i can put also switch my fav rom... albafinalstage n cassie 4.5 slim :thumbup:
Hi,

I am planning to install Rocket Rom v1 - JB with below mentioned process as described in actual thread.
i have a confusion, process says "copy ROM on your USB-storage". i want to ask, is it actually USB storage or does it mean ext SD card.??
Installation:
make sure you are on a rooted ICS-ROM or JB-ROM with CWM recovery and brickfree kernel installed
copy ROM on your USB-storage
boot in Recovery
FullWipe (also when coming from other Sammy-JB-ROM!)
flash ROM (it will reboot automatically in most cases)
after initial setup, open Super SU-app and you have to update SU-bin (app will do that for you if necessary!)
enjoy

Firstly, I have to declare that It's just a Compromising method, Means that it is not a perfect way to root your phone.
1. Rooted .411 Rom with CWM is needed first.
2. Download the ROM (scan the QR code to achieve thanks to sj8023ld) and Flashable CWM v7. Copy all of those zips in memory.If you want to delete system apps, just open the ROM zips with winrar and deleted the apps in system/app before you flash it.
3. Reboot to CWM and flash the ROM firstly, then the CWM v7.
4. Now open flashtool, go to flash mode, select .67 FTF and select only KERNEL and BASEBAND (exclude all other and remove the tics from WIPE DATA, WIPE CACHE, WIPE APPSLOG and tic no final verification ) thank to chinmoy32
5. Finally, you achieve the ROM Deodexed Rooted with CWM. But the reboot problem still existed when u edited system files. If u want to modify system files, u can try the two ways below.
1. Go back to the 411 kernel (see the TIPS 4 above,chang the .67 FTF to .411), after the modification finished do tips 4 again.
2. Make the system files flashable. then flash it using CWM.

If you choose to stay on the 411 kernel，you will meet no reboot issues，It works well. But you can not enjoy the benefits bring by the .67 kernel.

Recommendation
I recommend this-
Its unversaly. I use this on every rom.
Regularly updated.
http://zackptg5.com/android.php#disverfe
XDA Thread for this-
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/universal-dm-verity-forceencrypt-t3817389
P.S. I never format data while updating before flashing this (never needed, it works fine without that). I onlyformat data whenever i want pure clean install of any rom.
Just make sure to flash this after rom and after custom kernel or anything that edits boot. But flash this before Magisk. So. In short-
1. Flash- rom
2. Flash custom kernel or any thing that edits boot
3. Flash this to decrypt and to boot ur device successfully
4. Then flash Magisk
Note1: When you need clean install then follow these steps-
1. Factory reset (as normal when u do but if u r flash pure stock than wipe everything- i recommend this everytime for every stock(based) rom)
2. Reboot to recovery again
3. Click on Format data, type yes and format it.
4. Reboot to recovery again
5. And now go on flashing as mentioned above before these steps.
Note2: When u just need to update and not clean install. Then follow these steps-
1. First make sure to remove all magisk modules (when enabled it makes issues - after Magisk 18 and Pie update - before these updates i never got issues)
2. Now in twrp flash update zip
3. Flash anything that edits boot (ex. - custom kernel) if you want.
4. Now flash Magisk
5. Don'y flash any tweaks etc yet. (xXx NoLimits also)
6. Reboot.
7. Now if you want flash tweaks, modules etc.
8. And now only you are ready to flash xXx NoLimits again if you want.

Magisk must be flashed after dm...zip. But if you have already installed magisk then no worries. Flash DM Verity n force encrypr disabler and then again flash magisk. No need to format data in this case. Format data only needed when you are doing pure clean install of stock (based) rom. Check my signature, i am on OOS 9.0.2 that is android pie 9.0 and magisk v18. Decrypted (using that dm verity and force encrypr disabler).
