Building a kernel for Bering is just like compiling a kernel for any other linux distribution[1]. If you want the kernel to behave like (or be "module compatible" with), Jacques' standard Bering distributions, you will need to apply the same kernel patches[2] as Jacques and use the same configuration[3]. The README files in the patch directories provide brief directions for applying the patches. There is also a mostly working script for building a "stock" RC3 kernel at http://fritzfam.com/brad/leaftmp/make_bering_kernel As-is the script doesn't apply the freeswan patches, but if you need freeswan support, you should be able to easily modify it to fix that bug. > I found the page that talks gives great step by step for a uml > kernel but I have not found one for to make a bering image Probably a simple typo, but just to be sure... A Bering "image" is very different than a Bering "kernel". "Image" is somewhat generic, but usually refers to an image of a filesystem that can be written directly to boot media. It includes the kernel, packages, and a few configuration files. > does anyone > know where one is or have one? I would most appreciate it. Hope the comments above help get you started.
