Thank you for your reply.

I did "make kernel_menuconfig", gone through all the menus and chosen the modules i need to be included in the kernel.

However, i still have troubles: for some reason most of the modules i have chosen to be built-in are NOT in the kernel that was built.

I looked throught the make files and it seems that in openwrt buildroot there is some kind of facility for "enforcing" (?) defaults, is this correct ?

How can i build kernel with my option list and skip defaults enforcement (i am experienced in building linux kernels and i know exactly what i want to do).

The same king of defaults enforcement seem to be in place for "menuconfig" as well.

tl;dr:  How do i override openwrt build root defaults enforcement ?

Thank you again for your kind reply :)

Nino / Italy

Hi Nino,

Thar was my last trouble building the image I need. I don't know if this is a workaround, but building the modules inside the kernel, not as a module, was the solution for me. The target of this kernel is an alix2d2. With my actual configuration I get running:

  * Geode AES
  * Geode True Random Number Generator
  * LED's
  * WatchDog
  * And perhaps the pushbutton... I need to do some test



one last thing (:P), I needed to do some changes in the kernel config menu: make kernel_menuconfig

Hi,

We are trying to build custom linux kernel for openwrt backfire x86.

I am doing the following:

svn co svn://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/branches/backfire
make prereq
make menuconfig

and then I am changing several options (removing unneeded kernel drivers, adding ide and piix drivers, etc).

When build process completes few of changed options are included in resulting kernel, but most of the changes seem to be ignored and have no effect.

This used to work with kamikaze in the past, but in backfire it seems that actual kernel config is built by combining several config flies. Is that correct ? Please drop me a hint what to do or point me what to read in order to be able to build custom kernel.

Thanks in advance,
Nino / Italy
