kernellab hacking HOWTO
=======================

The goal:

To support compiling kernels for various configurations easily.
To keep history of what config was used when, and use this when 
configuring a new kernel.


TODO:

modules (cipe, pcmcia, lm-sensors, ...)
patches (upstream, debian, alan cox, kerneli.org, ...)
versions (stable/unstable, pre, ...)


What not to do:

Don't just to and blindly hack in support for
1) debian modules
2) debian patches
3) misc. patches

These things have to be thought a bit, otherwise they won't
integrate well.

I want the command line to control what modules are compiled, what
patches are applied, etc. /usr/src/modules is ugly. make-kpkg may have
to be modified.
