Porteus Kernel Builder

[raja]

Did you replace vmlinuz with the v5.16.1 ? in usb drive .

[Ed_P]

!!! Where do I find a vmlinuz v5.16.1 file??

Added in 9 minutes 59 seconds:
Found it. In neko's code in my script to update my ISO I have:

Code: Select all

if [ -f *.tar ]; then
   mkdir w
   cd w
   tar -xf ../*.tar
   cd ../
   cp w/vmlinuz          NEW/boot/syslinux/
   cp w/000-kernel.xzm   NEW/porteus/base/
   rm -fr w
fi

That's why the ISO works. Thank you raja. Now to work on the USB's update.

Added in 1 hour 34 minutes 40 seconds:
Posting from the booted USB drive. Thank you raja.

@neko and @Blaze,
Can you add this config:

Code: Select all

CONFIG_VMD=m --> CONFIG_VMD=y
CONFIG_APPLE_MFI_FASTCHARGE is not set --> CONFIG_APPLE_MFI_FASTCHARGE=y

Thanks.

Thanks.

hi neko the last build of the 5.16.11 Aporteus show some systemd error in dmesg:
35.413994] systemd[1]: Mounting Kernel Configuration File System...
[ 35.415286] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
[ 35.415291] #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
[ 35.415294] #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page
maybe my system that have issue with systemd,ok just for the record.

@beny
Thank you for your report.


["BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000" issue]

Kernel 5.16.10 old config ---> No
Kernel 5.16.10 new config ---> No
Kernel 5.16.11 new config ---> Has same message
Kernel 5.17-rc5 old config ---> Has same message

This issue might be not concern to kernel config.
It might be generated from a kernel source which version is more than 5.16.10.

Please refer to https://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg4252729.html


Thanks.

"Kernel Builder" was updated to version 22.03.01. (Please refer to the first article of this thread.)

Firmware database was updated.
[Firmware database : kernel-firmware-20220228_ee0667a-noarch-1plus.xzm]
that was created with
slackware package "kernel-firmware-20220228_ee0667a-noarch-1.txz" and following pakages.
alsa-firmware-1.2.4-noarch-2
b43-firmware-6.30.163.46-fw-1_SBo
bluetooth
ipw2100-fw-1.3-noarch-10
ipw2200-fw-3.1-noarch-8
zydas

Note: A firmware database was shrinked;
From :kernel-firmware-20220218_c53073d-noarch-1plus.xzm (844 M)
TO :kernel-firmware-20220228_ee0667a-noarch-1plus.xzm (362 M)
It is enough for prototype config build.
If firmware something lack for own config build, please prepare by yourself.


Thanks.
