 |
|
| Hello. I used genkernel and the manual make method to compile my kernel on different ocassions. My issue however is that my menuconfig doesnt get applied when using genkernel and thus I cannot configure my kernel for apparmor. How can I do that with genkernel? When I tried this with the make method my pc did not boot but i suspect that had something to do with my initramfs made with dracut and luks or lvm. Do genkernel --luks and --lvm options influence the initramfs or the kernel config as well? Are they applied before or after menuconfig? After I run menuconfig, genkernel outputs 'kernel config was not modified' even if I save the config. Also how do I get the default menuconfig config back? I tried make defconfig but I still get my old menuconfig... |

When you invoke | Code: | | genkernel --menuconfig all |
and save your config, then it's in /etc/kernels/
Your current kernel version and the config file name have to match for genkernel to use it.
Filenames look like this | Code: | | kernel-config-6.8.3-gentoo-x86_64 |

| Code: | | genkernel --menuconfig all |
Use the save option and save your kernel, i.e. /home/youruser/kernel_x64_5_10_212.config
End menuconfig with ctrl+c
Copy your saved config to your kernel source
| Code: | | cp /home/youruser/kernel_x64_5_10_212.config /usr/src/linux/.config |
Run genkernel with...
| Code: | | genkernel --no-clean all |
