I like to know where can i get the information in detail for compiling
kernel, loading modules and installing programs from scratch. i never
did it before. I installed virtual box recently and looking to play
with it.
Download the kernel sources from http://kernel.org/
Ensure you have the "build-essential" package installed.
unpack, CD into the directory and type 'make help' for more information.
Tip: copy your running kernel's config to save time reconfiguring:
(from within the unpacked source directory)
cp /boot/$(uname -r)/config .config
Building takes a long time, a powerful machine and using multiple
threads recommended.
