Hello,
I want to start to play with "homemade" kernels. (To get some experiences in this subject).
I want to do this step-by-step.
I have already read a lot about this.
I have a Fedora 10 running. So I want to start with this.
I have read that there is a "special" way to create a kernel for Fedora.
(
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/CustomKernel)
OK. I understand this +/-.
When you build a new kernel with an other version number, you have to rebuild all the modules with this new kernelversion, and you have to install these also.
But : I want to start with modify only some parameters in my kernel config.
Do I need to rebuild and re-install the modules also?
Will it not be enough to rebuild only the kernel? (vmlinuz)
Where can I find some information about the options I can disable in my kernel to speedup my system? (boot process ed). I want to suppress the loading of unneeded modules.
I want to understand the options in menuconfig (and there are a lot of options ! ! )
Thanks in advance !
