hello,

Wow lots to learn, I have little computer background and no formal computer training I'm self taught.


I'm a bit stuck... menuconfig.. and the file .config coping over my distro's config file to .config in the build directory then loading it to menuconfig making additional changes to customize the configuration?, the question is does menuconfig "append" each time I run it like with make localmodconfig? would I just be better off using gedit or vi to hand edit this file?

Are you talking about the kernel configuration?

if [ $response = yes ]; then
    make mrproper
    make defconfig
    patch -Np0 -i ../kernel-devtmpfs.patch
    make
    make modules_install
else
    printf " I don't follow your question
fi

With the attached patch will usually get you a system that will boot.
Although you will still need to do a proper kernel config.
