Hello,
(best if you start a new thread or change the subject line)
I am trying to build the last RT kernel on Fedora.
So, I've downloaded linux-5.6.17 and the last rt patch from kernel.org
I apply the RT patch to the linux sources.
I clone https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/kernel.git and checked out to f32 branch
I run $ ./build_configs.sh linux-5.6.17
I copy linux-5.6.17.x86_64-fedora.config as .config in the linux-5.6.17 directory.
Then, I do a make xconfig
I check "General Setup -> Configure standard kernel features (expert users)" to be able to check "Fully preemptible kernel".
I save the conf and copy the .config file to be able to build the kernel via a spec file.
I used to build regularly the RT kernel via this procedure (the check "General Setup -> Configure standard kernel features (expert users) is new to 5.6) and it was working fine with 5.4 kernels. Now, the installed kernel doesn't boot.
Any errors?
Is there something new I am missing to be able to boot the kernel ?
Maybe it's the options selected by the fedora script which have a problem.
I doesn't apply any patches to the RT kernel. I just wanted a "vanilla RT kernel" with fedora options but without fedora patches.
Hmmm, I just built a 5.6.17-rt10 for Fedora 32 a couple of days ago and
it boots on one system I have here (Intel I7 8559U processor, a small
NUC mobo in a fanless case). I based it on this .src.rpm (from Koji):
kernel-5.6.17-300.fc32.src.rpm
I don't remember doing anything different from previous versions (it is
now in the Planet CCRMA repo).
