If you want to be masochistic, you can always: 'make allyesconfig' before
starting the compile. This should build everything that makes sense for
your architecture. I'm running this now on my Core 2 Duo just to get an
idea of the longest it could take to build a kernel.
Ok, that's one humongous kernel:
$ size vmlinux
text data bss dec hex filename
31146564 4885797 6758472 42790833 28cefb1 vmlinux
Yes, that's a 31MB kernel. The file itself is 311MB.
The build took just over 20 minutes. I have two CPUs, so a single-cpu
compiling absolutely everything would probably be about 40 minutes
(probably a little less).
