Ive been looking at kernel compiling. Ive amounted certain information, but not enough.
I see 3 git repos with kernels: qubes-linux-kernel, rtiangha and fepitre. I know I can change versions with $ git checkout *version* I also know that I can download the sources and build them and I would preferably edit a .config file to edit my options and hardware. What I need to know: -how to use the gen-config file. -whats the difference between the config-base, config-qubes and config-qubes-minimal? (well the minimal part is obvious) -I can edit one of these config files to build with my kernel, correct? -I have built a .config using the '$ make oldconfig' command and it was a nightmare. The most effective way to configure a .config is to use '$ make menuconfig' correct? A good balance between my time and control? -Is there a convenient way to merge an existing .config with the qubes .config? Any other tips? Is there a qubes doc on this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
