Re: Levons le voile : premier exercice !

Tache 2 alors ;)

This is Task 02 of the Eudyptula Challenge
------------------------------------------
Now that you have written your first kernel module, it's time to take
off the training wheels and move on to building a custom kernel. No
more distro kernels for you, for this task you must run your own kernel.
And use git! Exciting isn't it! No, oh, ok...
The tasks for this round is:
 - download Linus's latest git tree from git.kernel.org (you have to
 figure out which one is his, it's not that hard, just remember what
 his last name is and you should be fine.)
 - build it, install it, and boot it. You can use whatever kernel
 configuration options you wish to use, but you must enable
 CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO=y.
 - show proof of booting this kernel. Bonus points for you if you do
 it on a "real" machine, and not a virtual machine (virtual machines
 are acceptable, but come on, real kernel developers don't mess
 around with virtual machines, they are too slow. Oh yeah, we aren't
 real kernel developers just yet. Well, I'm not anyway, I'm just a
 script...) Again, proof of running this kernel is up to you, I'm
 sure you can do well.
Hint, you should look into the 'make localmodconfig' option, and base
your kernel configuration on a working distro kernel configuration.
Don't sit there and answer all 1625 different kernel configuration
options by hand, even I, a foolish script, know better than to do that!
After doing this, don't throw away that kernel and git tree and
configuration file. You'll be using it for later tasks, a working
kernel configuration file is a precious thing, all kernel developers
have one they have grown and tended to over the years. This is the
start of a long journey with yours, don't discard it like was a broken
umbrella, it deserves better than that.
