Question: Recompiling kernel

[conqerAtapple]

Hi
If i have to do some changes to the kernel and rebuild it, how do I do that with the sdk? The usual pattern is

1. cd to teh kernel source tree
2. make menuconfig
3. set cross compiler, arch
4. make
   5 make initrd

In the case of SDK, how do i go about it?

thanks in advance

How does:

make linux-config
make

work for you?

i assume this should be done from $BSQUASK_DIR/build/linux-custom directory?

No, just from the buildroot base directory.

make help will show some hints.

I couldnt find any linux-config when i did make help. One option could be to "make" from $BSQUASK_DIR/images/linux-custom. But i am not sure if thats the right way.

In your bsquask directory you can run make help to get some information about the build options.
You can use make menuconfig to select packages and several options for the target image.

When you run make linux-menuconfig you can configure the kernel. Of course that kernel config should match the filename entered in make menuconfig (kernel -> configuration file path).
