New features which should be implemented in Porteus; suggestions are welcome. All questions or problems with testing releases (alpha, beta, or rc) should go in their relevant thread here, rather than the Bug Reports section.

I'm running v09 32-bit, and I've downloaded the 2.6.37 kernel (which uname tells me Porteus is running), I copied Porteus' porteus.config file, modified it via "make menuconfig", and compiled the kernel.
Now that it's compiled, how do I use it on my porteus live-cd? Should I dir2lzm the entire kernel? a portion of it? Do I copy certain files into my current 000-kernel...lzm?
Thanks.

everything is described in details in "Compilation and usage of custom Porteus kernel" HOWTO:
http://porteus.org/info/docs/51-develop ... ernel.html
just follow it.
please remember that for 2.6.37 kernel you will need squashfs-lzma patches form porteus repo. you could also go with xz patches from pentoo repo:
http://trac.pentoo.ch/browser/kernel/tr ... order=name
2.6.38.x kernel has xz patch merged by default so only aufs would left.
Cheers
Please add [Solved] to your thread title if the solution was found.
