-<para><userinput>make include/linux/version.h</userinput> and

|
|
-<userinput>make symlinks</userinput>: This creates the
|

-<filename>include/linux/version.h</filename> file and the <filename

-class="symlink">include/asm</filename> symlink.</para>
|
|
|
+<para><userinput>make mrproper:</userinput> This will ensure that the kernel
|
|
|
+tree is absolutely clean. We do this because the kernel team recommend
|
|
|
+that this is done prior to <emphasis>each</emphasis> kernel compilation,
|
|
|
+and that we shouldn't rely on the source tree being automatically clean
|
|
|
+after untarring.</para>

|
|
|
+<para><userinput>yes "" | make config:</userinput> This runs make config and
|
|
|
+answers with the default answer to every question the config script asks
|
|
|
+the user (it does this by simply doing the equivalent of hitting the
|
|
|
+Enter key, thus accepting the default Y and N answers to the questions).
|
|
|
+We're not configuring the real kernel here, we just need to have some sort
|
|
|
+of configure file created so that we can run make dep next that will
|
|
|
+create a few header files in <filename>include/linux</filename>, like
|
|
|
+version.h, among others, that we will need to compile Glibc and other
|
|
|
+packages later in chroot.</para>

|
|

|
|
|
+<para><userinput>make dep:</userinput> make dep checks dependencies and sets
|
|
|
+up the dependencies file. We don't really care about the dependency
|
|
|
+checks, but what we do care about is that make dep creates those
|
|
|
+aforementioned files in <filename>include/linux</filename> we will be
|
|
|
+needing later on.</para>
