1. This is *completely* the wrong list for this question. This list
is for development of ELKS.
2. Read the documentation. Specifically, /usr/src/linux/README
3. Re-read the documentation. Ponder the paragraph:
- In order to boot your new kernel, you'll need to copy the kernel
image (found in /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/zImage after compilation)
to the place where your regular bootable kernel is found.
