A new (perfect) 3.17.0 kernel for Puppy
I don't know how useful this info is for the average Puppy Linux user is, but today I have compiled a new perfect (as I think) 3.17.0 kernel for my PuppEX installed (not "frugal") system. I call it 3.17.0-puppex.
The kernel can be used in all newer 32 bit Puppy Linux "fully" installed systems. I.e. not "frugal" systems.
DOWNLOAD (puppy-k317.zip)
md5sum
1. unzip puppy-k317.zip
2. Place vmlinuz in /boot
3. Create new folders 3.17.0-puppex and all-firmware in /lib/modules
4. Open the sfs files and copy the content to the folders 3.17.0-puppex respectively all-firmware
Done!

As I said in my first post the kernel is for "fully" installed systems.mikeb wrote:I assume the reason is that there is nothing done about the initrd...a user would have to alter that for frugal use that's all as for any kernel change.
And there are still patches for aufs?!!!
Perhaps list a few of the perfections to give an idea of whats improved/added.

if you configure it with CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC=yes then the config file is included in /proc/config.gz (general setup --> Kernel .config support, Enable access to .config through /proc/config.gz)exton wrote:No, but I can/will add it as an attachment here later today.MinHundHettePerro wrote:Arne,
is the .config-file included in your package?

Ok. Hope it works, because I can't attach the config file here. I keep getting the error message "extension not allowed".

What is the extension?exton wrote: Ok. Hope it works, because I can't attach the config file here. I keep getting the error message "extension not allowed". (???).
The best is to just gzip it and attache it.
'.gz' is an accepted extension. .'txt' is not.
