I think genkernel builds more stuff than I might if I did the kernel by
hand, and I'm assuming your laptop is not faster than my desktop. 15 minutes
was likely not enough.

I'd have to time 'make modules' as I've got the same CPU. I know that 'make bzImage' takes less than 4 minutes, so I don't imagine that building the modules takes much longer.

modules takes a comparatively longer time than bzImage. It all depends of course on what you have all selected in the config menu (if you have modified your configuration with --config)



What does genkernel all do ?? I know it builds "busybox", but that shouldn't add that much longer to the process.

That is wicked quick
