This procedure is based on
http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_ubuntu
Contents
Get linux sources
We use vanilla 2.6.15.7, vanilla, from kernel.org.
Get bigphys patch
Patch is available here:
http://e-mode.phas.ubc.ca/~mhasse/mce/bigphysarea-2.6.15.7.patch
Get kernel compilation packages
apt-get update apt-get install kernel-package libncurses5-dev fakeroot wget bzip2
Make sure bash is your default shell
sudo rm /bin/sh sudo ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh
Uncompress and patch
tar xjf linux-2.6.18.1.tar.bz2 ln -s linux-2.6.18.1 linux cd /usr/src/linux bzip2 -dc /usr/src/patch-2.6.19-rc4.bz2 | patch -p1 --dry-run bzip2 -dc /usr/src/patch-2.6.19-rc4.bz2 | patch -p1
Configure and compile
cp /boot/config-`uname -r` ./.config make menuconfig make-kpkg clean sudo make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-bigphys kernel_image kernel_headers
(Can't use fakeroot in this last step, since the .deb are written to /usr/src.)
Binary kernel package installation
See MAS OS configuration .
The .deb's that come out of the compilation above are incomplete, be we install them anyway. They are missing arch/i386/Makefile.cpu, and Modules.symvers. They might be missing other things too, but MAS really misses those ones. These have been put into a patch; which must be applied at the end.
