genkernel

Gentoo Linux utility to compile and install kernels.

• Automatically compile and install a generic kernel:

sudo genkernel all

• Build and install the bzImage|initramfs|kernel|ramdisk only:

sudo genkernel {bzImage|initramfs|kernel|ramdisk}

• Apply changes to the kernel configuration before compiling and installing:

sudo genkernel --menuconfig all

• Generate a kernel with a custom name:

sudo genkernel --kernname={custom_name} all

• Use a kernel source outside the default directory `/usr/src/linux`:

sudo genkernel --kerneldir={path/to/directory} all
