I would need a generic kernel and initrd so that I can replace them with the vmlinuz and initrd on installation media with appropriate drivers I have the question I am asking is not limited to the LFS system rather I am asking it in a general context as how do vendors compile the kernel that is shipped on the installation media with latest drivers .
