[custom-kernels overlay] one spot for latest custom kernels

I was bored at work today so I decided to start up a "custom-kernels" portage overlay. So far the overlay only contains the latest ebuilds for the following kernel sources: beyond, no, emission, rad, and viper. I will continually add their new ebuilds to this overlay as they post them. I though one central overlay for all the custom kernels would be usefull. If I missed a kernel or something is not working just leave a message. There are two methods of downloading the overlay. Note, if you are running layman 1.0.7 or later, it will ignore overlays with missing attributes. Add the -k option to get around this.

In the meantime you can add http://berkano.net/files/gentoo/layman.xml to your /etc/layman/layman.cfg to get this overlay into layman.

you could always grab rt-sources from the pro-audio overlay.

[quote][METHOD 2] Layman:
# layman -kf
# layman -ka custom-kernels

Update Overlay:
# layman -ks custom-kernels

I'm getting this after I type any of these commands
[code]layman: error: no such option: -k

sources are still not in /usr/portag/sys-kernel
am I missing something ?

I upgraded layman the problem with -k is gone
the ebuilds are in /usr/portage/local/layman/custom-kernels/system-kernel
