Comments

Automating the kernel compile, configuration copying, systemd-boot and grub2 configuration updating, old kernel cleaning script for Gentoo Linux.

Usage:

  • First, clone this repository and change directory:

git clone https://github.com/mofm/kernel-build.git
cd kernel-build

  • Change script permissons:

chmod +x build-kernel.sh

  • If you are using systemd-boot you should first learn rootfs disk UUID or LVM partition and then add it to the script:

    UUID="dfc588c0-edd4-8543-a3fe-d7d49bd8f141"

Optional: You can add specific kernel parameters to ROOTFLAGS.

  • Now you execute the script like so:

./build-kernel.sh systemd-boot

  • If you are using grub2:

./build-kernel.sh grub2
