This is a port of Shaun2029's CM10 found here [rom] CyanogenMod 10 Tweaks - SlateDroid.com

This is based on Testing version, cm10_a10_20130328.zip.

The files and modules come from my grandson's 9742. You need to have cwm recovery installed and have a system larger that 300MB.

rotation doesn't work, games like temple run wont work as the sensor doesn't work.

You need to make a backup and factory reset before installing this port.

Wow, so this works with no internal tablet mods? Nice work, as usual, Vamp. Do you think this will work for any version 9742?

It's for 9742 tablets that have a large system partitions. My grandson's system partition is over 500MB.

Code: 
root@android:/ # busybox df -h

No it will NOT!. Depends isf your version is what vampirefo's grandson has. Or you'll have to swap drivers, libs etc.

This is correct, Coby has made so many different versions no way to make one rom that would work on all of them.

sorry for that, i mean

for the kernel (boot.img) inside the zip:
i tried to flash it via (livesuit) program -this program can flash .img files to coby devices, but the operation was canceled and an error message appeared telling me that the (boot.img) is broken or invalid
if you used other way to flash the kernel pleas tell me about it, because CyanogenMod roms need its kernel to boot

then i skip the kernel step... and tried to install the rom from CWM recovery with the stock kernel
...
for the rom (CM10-7942):
first i boot into CWM recovery then i do a factory reset and wiped dalvik cash then i select -install zip from SDcard- then i select the zip file then that what happened:

opening update package...
installing updat...
(status 7)
erorr in the package file \CM10-9742

i search google for the status 7 error and i found that this error happend because the package is not for this device, but i did all that on my Coby Kyros MID9742
can you tell me how to fix this, and please tell us more details about the way you install this rom

thanks

(sorry for my bad english)

Who told you to use LiveSuite to flash boot.img? These are flashable zips, flashed through Clockworkmod recovery. In your case it sounds like you only have the stock recovery, which would easily explain why you can't install the ROM.

The rooting process and tools can be found at the link in my signature. Because you used LiveSuite however you use the tools at your own risk. I will not provide any support if you run into a problem.

ok
i have already rooted my tablet and install google apps and CWM recovery and make my own CWM recovery backup.
for the zip file i replace the (META-INF) folder with other one and then the installation process continue normally in CWM recovery until i see a message "installation completed"
then i reboot into system and i have got a bootloop still stock on coby logo.
any way thanks i'll try other way or.. i don't know
but what i understanding now is that no need to change the Kernel

(sorry for my bad english)

The kernel has to be changed, I don't understand what is happening in your case go into advanced and report error then post CWM error report.

In a desperate search of a way to efficiently resize the system partition of a 9742-8 with a 250mb system partition. Is there any chance that a script such as this one with a little tweaking would be sufficient?

I have a nandroid backup of my system made with CWM, I rooted with CobyADB.
The code posted would resize the system partiton to 512mb.

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/37875-ho...d-cache-partition-sizes-to-whatever-you-want/

Code: 
#!/sbin/busybox sh

edify_init() {
# get file descriptor for output
EDIFY_OUTFD=$(ps | grep -v "grep" | grep -o -E "update_binary(.*)" | cut -d " " -f 3);
}

# same as progress command in updater-script, for example:
#
# progress 0.25 10
#
# will update the next 25% of the progress bar over a period of 10 seconds

edify_progress() {
if [ $EDIFY_OUTFD != "" ]; then
    echo "progress ${1} ${2} " 1>&$EDIFY_OUTFD;
fi;
}

# same as set_progress command in updater-script, for example:
#
# set_progress 0.25
#
# sets progress bar to 25%

edify_set_progress() {
if [ $EDIFY_OUTFD != "" ]; then
    echo "set_progress ${1} " 1>&$EDIFY_OUTFD;
fi;
}

# same as ui_print command in updater_script, for example:
#
# ui_print "hello world!"
#
# will output "hello world!" to recovery, while
#
# ui_print
#
# outputs an empty line

edify_ui_print() {
if [ $EDIFY_OUTFD != "" ]; then
    echo "ui_print ${1} " 1>&$EDIFY_OUTFD;
    echo "ui_print " 1>&$EDIFY_OUTFD;
else
    echo "${1}";
fi;
}

    edify_ui_print "${1}"
