i am new to linux os. i want to compile my own kernel.can anybody tell me how to go about kernel compilation step by step.


thanks for any help

Hello,

LinuxQuestions is not the place to turn to when you're looking for a step by step guide. Those can be found in abundant numbers on the internet. When you encounter trouble following a guide, that's when you turn to LQ for answers and solutions. That being said, have a look at this site, plenty of guides there: Kernel Compilation, step by step..

Kind regards,

Eric
