Edit grub.conf, reboot and chose your kernel at the grub prompt All those && \ are used to string it into a series invocation that if a build error occurs anyplace, it should bail out leaving the build error on screen. It might need more tweeking than just the $VER setting, in particular there are now at least 2 versions of the utility that does the generation of the initrd images. So consult the man page for your version and modify to suit. It also has some historical cruft, some of which dates back to linux-2.2 days. Now probably commented out. I last built a working 3.16.0 kernel with it, modified of course. This script also keeps one previous generation by deleting the -old version if it exists, renaming the existing same named stuff to -old if they exist so that if a failure occurs, and the grub refresh thing has been run, then you can back up to the working version by rebooting to the old one. But things in linux aren't constant, and I haven't tested that to see if it still works in 4 or 5 years. It also uses ccache which can materially speed up 2nd and subsequent builds. So get ccache & install it. You will be pleased. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
