I found the answer by myself. I've successfully built the kernel and
packaged it in deb format, and understood how to include it in my live
system. I have, however, come across another problem.
I need to load a module during the boot process of the live system, and
to achieve that I need to write a initramfs-tools hook. However, I'm not
sure where to place it to make it run.
From what I understand, the initial ramdisk is generated during the lb
build phase using the live-boot set of hooks. How can I add my own hooks
to the process? Do I simply add them to the /etc/initramfs-tools/hooks/
directory in the chroot of live-build?
I'd like to apologize to you for not just trying this out directly, but
I don't have much horsepower to build the system nor bandwidth to
download all the packages as of now, but I must absolutely be ready for
when I will.
Thank you again.

Hi everyone.
I don't really understand the building system.
Where does it take the kernel from? Does it use the currently loaded
kernel? Does it recompile it from source?
I'm trying to build a custom Kali image, which uses the Debian Live
system, and I need to include various kernel patches for the hardware
I'm going to run it on.
Your help will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you.
