"I think if you use the akmod packages from rpmfusion, they will build the driver module at boot if it isn't there"
A bit lost here, would the rpm-fusion install and akmod install occur before or after the custom kernel compile?. . .
"It might be possible to use the binary blob right from nvidia, but you would have to take care of all updating outside the package system."
So if I go this route then I have to first compile the kernel with nouveau and then install NVIDIA?
In both of these instance, since the kernel.spec file controls what happens, is there a way to somehow generate or copy the kernel.spec file from the running kernel? I tried to find the kernel.spec file else where in the system but came up empty. I also see your answer below that refers to make localmodconfig . . . would this be the way to go?
One more thing, when I screw up the process and install a broken kernel by mistake is there anyway to remove it? I did dnf remove and regenerated the grub2-efi.cfg and ran dracut but I still see it in the boot menu.
