Okay, as far as the kernel goes ...I have built the 5.10.11 kernel on 5
different distros (Gentoo, Slackware, Debian, Arch and Opensuse-Tumbleweed)
from yesterday ...simple compile with little option tweak ..nothing breaks.

Probably, good fortune of mine! :)

There is "Pathetically and awfully wrote" mundane bash script do the stuff for
