kernel modifications.

[Tobias Speckbacher]

Depends on if you have a kernel configuration already in your source
tree.
I'd probably go over all the options again, taking the opportunity to
through out what I don't need and verifying that everything I will need
is there.  If you have a saved config that works for your environment,
by all means use it, nothing more fun that configuring all those options
;).

But yes you would modify the source and do all the normal things that go
with rebuilding and installing a kernel.

Hi,

I had a question about changing a few things in the kernel. I need to
carry out a few changes to the kernel files, entry.S, change the task
struct a bit and a few others for academic purposes. I wanted to know
how
do I bring this changes into effect. I am a little confused about the
whole process.Would I have to redo the whole kernel rebuild process, as
in
configuring all the options, building the kernel image, installing the
modules, modifying lilo.conf etc, etc. ? Or do I just compile the
modified
sources and reboot.

Thank you.
