genkernel

Gentoo Linux utility to compile and install kernels.

  • Automatically compile and install a generic kernel:

sudo genkernel all

  • Build and install the bzImage|initramfs|kernel|ramdisk only:

sudo genkernel {{bzImage|initramfs|kernel|ramdisk}}

  • Apply changes to the kernel configuration before compiling and installing:

sudo genkernel --menuconfig all

  • Generate a kernel with a custom name:

sudo genkernel --kernname={{custom_name}} all

  • Use a kernel source outside of the default directory /usr/src/linux:

sudo genkernel --kerneldir={{path/to/directory}} all
