Seeing your tremendous effort, I thought I will make an attempt to compile a new custom Kernel using Debian stretch config file, yesterday. Disaster?

1)I did not take your warning about "space". I set up a 15GB ,ext4 partition,only to find to my dismay, that it is inadequate for the compile process. 15GB was was just sufficient upto kernel crypto module. Somehow I managed to shift all driver modules to "lib" directory and vmlinuz.

2)The next blunder was not disabling config_dbug_info. My Driver modules are 10 times the sizes of normal. I tried "striping' debug information from the drivers,manually. Getting error messages.' not able to create directory to store stripped info'.
Now, please tell me a terminal command to "find and strip debug info alone from all "ko" files in all the the main and sub directories in lib/modules/kernel directory.

3) Third major error was not applying "AUFS" patch. I have source code from kernel org and not AUFS pre patched source code from sourceforgenet. Is it possible now to patch the compiled kernel?

If I have to redo the whole, how shall I apply aufs.patch in your "kernel builder"?.

If and when , you could find some time free, please address my queries. Thanks. My second attempt will be perfect.

* I tried the new 'slax' ISO, once(isoboot). Boots and Shuts down without any "red" warning messages on unmount. There is hope.

Post#263 by **neko** » 30 Dec 2017, 06:49

@raja
I apologize for my late reply.

1. strip command
a terminal command to "find and strip debug info alone
from all "ko" files in all the the main and sub directories in lib/modules/kernel directory.

Sorry, I do not know the Debug Information Delete command.
I think that it is probably best to rebuild with disabling config_dbug_info.

2. "AUFS" patch
The patch is applied to the source file.
Rather than patching the source file in the compiled environment and rebuilding it,
I think that it does not cause a mistake if you apply it to the source file from the beginning and build it.

[How to use "Kernel Builder"]
== Run 1) get source file and patch
"Porteus Kernel Builde" ----> setting window
set working direcory
select kernel version
check off "Create FW"
check on "download" item
check on "expand & patch" item
check on "own patch" item : only if you need own patch.
push "OK" button

== Change kernel config to your liking

== Run 2) build
"Porteus Kernel Builde" ----> setting window
set working direcory
select kernel version
check off "Create FW"
check on "compile" item
push "OK" button

== Run 3) copy firmwares from firmware package, only if you need
"Porteus Kernel Builde" ----> setting window
set working direcory
select kernel version
check on "Create FW"
push "OK" button

== Run 4) create crippled_sources module, only if you need
"Porteus Kernel Builde" ----> setting window
set working direcory
select kernel version
check off "Create FW"
check on "crippled_sources" item
push "OK" button

Note: Current "own patch"
There are 2 own patches.
(1) patch to drivers/acpi/sleep.c
to fix reboot/shutdown problem.
(2) patch to drivers/mfd/intel-lpss-pci.c
to fix "Touch Pad" problem.

"own patch" button is available for following version line.
=== version line 4.15-rc ===
patch to drivers/acpi/sleep.c

=== version line 4.14 ===
patch to drivers/acpi/sleep.c

=== version line 4.13 ===

patch to drivers/mfd/intel-lpss-pci.c

=== version line 4.12 ===
patch to drivers/acpi/sleep.c

=== version line 4.9 ===

=== version line 4.4 ===
patch to drivers/acpi/sleep.c

Many thanks,Nekosan, for your wonderful tool. Second attempt proved to be a success, and my custom Kernel v4.14.11, loaded fine with Porteus and Aporteus.

[ 0.000000] Linux version 4.14.11-porteus (root@porteus) (gcc version 7.2.0 (GCC)) #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jan 4 01:56:54 UTC 2018

Precision Mouse is now working. Changes made to 'config' file, see here;

http://forum.porteus.org/viewtopic.php?f=140&t=7452

An option to select "proto config" or "own config" will be an advantage.

[How to update the prototype of version 4.9.75 config]
---- STEP 1 ---- By "make oldconfig"
=== 64bit ===
Remove the kernel mapping in user mode (PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION) [Y/n/?] (NEW) n

Note 1: STEP 1
"PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION" is not set.

Note 2: STEP 2
Please refer to HID over I2C - Precision Mouse (Post by raja #61487)
raja, Thanks.

Thanks.
