-Since I should document this somewhere, here's the procedure
-for building the Slackware kernel package. I do not patch the official
-kernel sources, but it's not exactly a virgin either.
-
-=============================================================
-Version specific notes (if any):
-=============================================================
-
-For a 4.x kernel (much easier):
-
- Untar Linus' source in /usr/src.
- Make all files owned by root:root with reasonable perms.
- Install a suitable .config, or use make menuconfig, etc.
-
- An example would be to use one of the config files here:
- # cat config-generic-4.4.14 > /usr/src/linux-4.4.14/.config
-
- Then run the build programs:
-
- make oldconfig
- make bzImage
- make clean
- make prepare
- rm .version
-
-That's it! You now have a clean Slackware-configured Linux source
-tree.
-
-The kernel in Slackware supports SMP. With as common as
-multicore CPUs and SMP boards have become, this seemed like the
-obvious choice. The kernels are probably better for single CPU
-machines, too, if they will run them.
-
-At this point if you are running huge.s or generic.s, you should have
-no problems building kernel modules.
-
-Have fun! :-)
