Re: .confile

Thanks Ian, but i know how to make a kernel but i need a start point and the custom ubuntu is very nice, so where is the .config file used to create the ubuntu kernel?
In Debian the .config file is on the header package.

thanks.

You have to run make menuconfig to generate a .config file. Select the bits 'n' bobs for the kernel you want, then run make, followed by make modules.....

There are other variants, "make xconfig", "make config" each has a different style interface. xconfig requires GTK+ I believe.

Hi all,

I need to make a custom kernel so where is the .config file?
I had install the linux-source package and also the header package, but
can't find the .config file!

Thanks in advance

Nuno
