I use qemu or KVM and have a VM (virtual machine) that I run on my laptop. I have a small minimal kernel that I can quickly compile and boot in the VM with out having to reboot my real hardware. I set up two tap devices, my VM has two nics, and I make it route from my desktop to my gateway. With this setup and can make changes in the kernel and quickly see them running. _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
