I think the kernel is the least of the issues, I believe all the pieces are
already built by the Development Environment but
the RPMS aren't installed and there is no UI provided by Endian. This means
that even if you get all the pieces installed
you will need to manually edit the configuration files. The RPMs you need are
hostapd-*, crda-*, compat-wireless-*, kernel-*.i686.rpm and
possibly others.
Having said that, here are the instructions for rebuilding the kernel:
. /var/efw-devel/functions
rpm -i `find_srpm kernel`
rpmbuild -bp $RPMBUILD_DIR/SPECS/kernel.spec
cd $RPMBUILD_DIR/BUILD/kernel-2.6.32/linux-2.6.32.i386
cp kernel-2.6.32.43-i686-PAE.config .config
make menuconfig
Make whatever changes you want to the configuration.
diff -u kernel-2.6.32.43-i686-PAE.config .config
Apply the changes to $RPMBUILD_DIR/SOURCES/config-generic or
$RPMBUILD_DIR/SOURCES/config-x86-generic as appropriate.
cd ~
rpmbuild -bs $RPMBUILD_DIR/SPECS/kernel.spec
cp $RPMBUILD_DIR/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.32.43-57.e43.src.rpm $OVERRIDE_SRPM_DIR
rpmbuild --rebuild --target i686-pc-linux `find_srpm kernel`
New RPMs are in $RPMBUILD_DIR/RPMS/i686. Copy them to an installed system and
install them.
/var/efw-devel/functions defines a number of shell variables and functions that
are useful when working with the development
environment.

| I am trying to get endian to support wifi - it appears this has not

| enabled in the kernel.
|
| So what I had in mind was to re-config the kernel (with wifi) and
| rebuild the kernel - using the development environment.
|
| Can anybody help with the steps needed to unpack the kernel sources
| snd
| to re-build afterwards?
|
| TIA
