Grab the latest tar.bz from kernel.org, uncompress, apply any patches (like the rt one), configure the options and modules that you want, then instead of make do: sudo make-kpkg --initrd kernel_image kernel_headers Hth, -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAknr1eMACgkQwRXgH3rKGfNPywCdFsiyKGtDaQd58r+oegMv0go0 MaYAoKgBM0YGjiatyfsk4FpM7YEueBS9 =3QLo -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ 64studio-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.64studio.com/mailman/listinfo/64studio-devel
