Building the Linux Kernel
Posted: Wed Sep 14, 2022 1:35 pm
I finally got around to upgrade my MiSTer from old 4.19 to latest with 5.15.1, and everything works as intended.
Once upon a time I made a docerfile for building the 4.19 kernel, so I could build the kernel with the features I need, this is of course way outdated now, but I haven't really found "the recipy" for how to the current kernel is built, what cross-toolchain is used etc (though from /proc/version, I do get some hints). I would love to update the dockfile for the new kernel.
In case anyone wonders why I need "my own" kernel:
* IPv6
* NFS server - I use this to re-export cloud mounts to the Minimig
