214. Compiling kernel 3.5 on Debian testing

I've posted how to compile quite a few different kernel versions already (3.4, 3.3, 3.2). With the exception of specific questions asked during the process, the are all compiled in the same way.

Compiling kernels is NOT scary on debian.

cd ~/tmp
wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.0/linux-3.5.tar.bz2
tar xvf linux-3.5.tar.bz2
cd linux-3.5/
cat /boot/config-`uname -r`>.config
make oldconfig

Question time! See below.

make-kpkg clean
time fakeroot make-kpkg -j5 --initrd --revision=3.5.0 --append-to-version=-amd64 kernel_image kernel_headers

This takes a LONG TIME. Change 5 to number of cores+1. 35 minutes with -j5 on a six core desktop.

 mv ../*3.5.0*.deb .

sudo dpkg -i *.deb

And you're done.
