Porteus Kernel Builder

[neko]

@peebee
I could not build your AUFS kernel 5.9.1 that could run in Porteus 5.0rc2.
Would you upload the 64 bit "lib and vmlinuz" of kernel 5.9.n that can be used for Porteus 5.0rc2 ?

Thanks.

Hi @neko

Good to see you back....

Have sent you a PM with a link to kernel 5.9.1

What problems did you have building a 5.9 kernel? @maia seems to have been successful?

Tested by swapping the kernel in Porteus-LXDE-v5.0rc2-x86_64.iso

Cheers

@peebee
Thank you for your response mail.

I checked the difference of your result and my result.
It caused from kernel configuration difference.

1.Peebee config result
The Porteus-OPENBOX-v5.0rc2-x86_64.iso that
was replaced with vmlinuz and 000-kernel.xzm of peebee.conf.tar.xz,
did run successful

2.Neko config result
The Porteus-OPENBOX-v5.0rc2-x86_64.iso that
was replaced with vmlinuz and 000-kernel.xzm of neko.conf.tar.xz,
stopped during boot.

I will check more detail what items of kernel config have issues.
And I will report those when I will know the items.
(It will need many times kernel build, so it will take enough time.)


Thanks.

@neko,
What are peebee.conf.tar.xz and neko.conf.tar.xz, do they contain vmlinuz, 000-kernel.xzm and 06-crippled_sources.xzm?

I would think they only contain the files mentioned.

was replaced with vmlinuz and 000-kernel.xzm of peebee.conf.tar.xz,

was replaced with vmlinuz and 000-kernel.xzm of neko.conf.tar.xz,

I would think they only contain the files mentioned.

Thank you, but why are the sizes so different.

[babam]

I did a little testing of kernel 5.9.1 (peebee.conf.tar.xz) and so far so good.

I am currently using version 5.9.2 and working. (eventually crashes pcmanfm, but I open it again and it works)

01 applied the patches provided by peebee + make clean && make mrproper + oldconfig (creating previously with localmodconfig for the modules and local hardware)

BUGS:

[babam]

64bit-ALL-kernel5.9.2?

It should be 64bit-RES-kernel5.9.2

[Blaze]

babam, what is mean RES?
Ok, restricted version ("Only basic patches" patching was done.)

I think what would be a great help for the users including info to which kernel with a used compiler like the named above fits to which exiting Porteus distro, even experimental ones.

I would try a kernel if I knew it would work with 5.0x1 or 5.0xy of my already installed Porteus versions.
Adding the info would be very helpful, and creating kernels that work with existing Porteus versions by choosing the exact same compiler version would also help.

(maybe even run the created kernel in the very Porteus one thought it should work with also helps)

[babam]

@Blaze
Yes, Restricted version (Only basic patches)

@Rava
All versions of Porteus can use the kernel created by Blaze.
I even use it for Porteus 3.2.2 and it works great.
