Compile vanilla kernel on debian / ubuntu

I realize that there is more than one way to do this, but this is the way that I have most recently done it, and it works providing you with packages that you can redistribute to your other Debian / Ubuntu machines or friends.

Grab the dependencies you’ll need to build the kernel

apt-get install fakeroot kernel-wedge build-essential makedumpfile \
        linux ncurses-dev git-core linux linux-source ncurses-dev kernel-package

Grab the kernel that you want

cd /usr/src
wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.32.2.tar.gz
tar zxf linux-2.6.32.2.tar.gz
cd /usr/src/linux-2.6.32.2

Configure the kernel, I use the config from the stock Ubuntu server kernel, then run “make oldconfig” (hold down enter until all the questions are answered and it gives you back a prompt). Then, run “make menuconfig” and add or remove whatever feature has caused you to want to build your own kernel. Save the config.

cp /boot/config-2.6.31-16-server /usr/src/linux-2.6.32.2/.config
make oldconfig
make menuconfig

Now, we’re ready to compile, set the concurrency level to however many processors (including hyperthreads) you have plus 1 or 2. I’m building on a Core i7 860, so I use 9. (Quad core, which hyperthreading, plus) 1 = 9.

Pick a version number for your kernel. It could be anything you want a-z, A-Z, 0-9, +, or . (no underscores “_”). Thi s will go after append-to-version= below

export CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=9
time fakeroot make-kpkg --append-to-version=.31338 kernel_image --initrd binary

This took about 30 minutes on my system, and leaves me with the following files:

real    30m27.995s
user    79m17.300s
sys     10m38.560s

root@replay02:/usr/src/linux-2.6.32.2# ls /usr/src/*31338*
/usr/src/linux-doc-2.6.32.2.31338_2.6.32.2.31338-10.00.Custom_all.deb
/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.32.2.31338_2.6.32.2.31338-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb
/usr/src/linux-image-2.6.32.2.31338_2.6.32.2.31338-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb
/usr/src/linux-manual-2.6.32.2.31338_2.6.32.2.31338-10.00.Custom_all.deb
/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.32.2.31338_2.6.32.2.31338-10.00.Custom_all.deb
root@replay02:/usr/src/linux-2.6.32.2#

Now it’s as simple as installing!

dpkg -i /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.32.2.31338_2.6.32.2.31338-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb
dpkg -i /usr/src/linux-image-2.6.32.2.31338_2.6.32.2.31338-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb

Grub2 should automatically have updated and found the new kernel!

I hope this worked out for you.

I just found out about sharedance. It looks amazing. I haven’t fully tested it yet, but I am installing it now, and thought that I would share my experiences with it.

First step is to grab ports.tar.gz from ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.6/ports.tar.gz

extract into /usr

cd /usr/ports/databases/sharedance
make install
mkdir /data/sessions
useradd -d /data/sessions -s /usr/local/bin/bash sharedance
chown -R /data/sessions sharedance


Add the necessary stuff to /etc/rc.conf.local

sharedanced_flags="--directory=/data/sessions --uid=`id -u sharedance` --daemonize" #sharedance flags

Add the startup script to /etc/rc.local

if [ X"${sharedanced_flags}" != X"NO" -a -x /usr/local/sbin/sharedanced ]; then
echo 'starting sharedance...'; /usr/local/sbin/sharedanced ${sharedanced_flags}
fi


Now let’s try to startup the server and see what happens:

Copy and paste to test our settings

sharedanced_flags="--directory=/data/sessions --uid=`id -u sharedance` --daemonize" #sharedance flags

if [ X"${sharedanced_flags}" != X"NO" -a -x /usr/local/sbin/sharedanced ]; then
echo ‘starting sharedance…’; /usr/local/sbin/sharedanced ${sharedanced_flags}
fi

Now we should start to see sessions flying in!

This should get you started

The CentOS Way

Install the development utils, libs and headers

yum install gcc gcc-c++ kernel-devel ncurses-devel rpm-build

Grab a new kernel

wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.29.1.tar.gz
tar zxvf linux-2.6.29.1
cd !$

Make sure you enable support for at least the hardware in the machine you’re compiling the kernel on (safe bet). You can use the lspci command to figure out what that is

Create your kernel config. (If you already have one, just create a new file called .config and put your kernel configuration in it.

make menuconfig

or

make config

Once you have completed your kernel configuration, you can build the kernel and create an RPM for installation on other hosts. I have a Core2Quad CPU in this system, so I’ll set the number of jobs to 5 -j5

make -j5 rpm

After it has built (without errors) you need to install the kernel from RPM, do a directory listing to see what the name of the file that was built is:

ls /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/`uname -m`
cd !$
rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.29.1.x86_64.rpm

Okay, now create an initial ramdisk for the kernel (initrd)

mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.29.1.img 2.6.29.1

Now edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst to include the new kernel and you’re all set!

Enjoy.
