You're experiencing a common issue when trying to install KernelSU: it simply doesn't play nicely with all kernels. While KernelSU is a powerful tool for gaining root access on Android devices, its compatibility depends heavily on the specific kernel version your device uses.

Specifically, you're running into the 'GKI only' limitation. This means your 4.4 kernel is not directly supported by the regular KernelSU builds.

There are a couple of ways to resolve this:

* **Look for KernelSU builds designed for your exact kernel version:** Developers often release specific KernelSU versions tailored for particular kernel builds. Search online forums dedicated to your device model (e.g., XDA Developers) or the device manufacturer's website. Someone may have already compiled KernelSU for your exact needs.
* **Consider alternative root methods:** If finding a compatible KernelSU build proves difficult, explore other root methods suitable for your 4.4 kernel. Methods like Magisk may offer broader compatibility. Always remember to research thoroughly and proceed with caution when rooting your device, as it can void your warranty and potentially damage your device if done incorrectly.
