- After going through the 'Idiot's Guide to Rebuilding your kernel' (his name
- not mine), I decided that the process was reasonably well defined and could
- stand to be put into a simple script. I have done that. It is included
- below, and makes a new kernel using the existing software, Makefiles, etc.
- The program defaults to GENERICISA as the configuration file to edit, or
- will accept an environment variable called CONFIG_NAME which should contain
- the name of your configuration file, or will accept an argument which will
- override the CONFIG_NAME variable. I started using this when I was building
- a new kernel for a friend of mine that needed to have different options
- enabled than I needed. also, since I am one of those folks that keeps a
- bunch of weird kernels around, I decided that the last step should be
- manual. Check it out. E-Mail me with improvements or questions.
