Hi,
I built a kernel for the first time following this guide :
https://kernelnewbies.org/OutreachyfirstpatchSetup
I rebooted my ubuntu machine and went to the grub menu and then chose
advanced option menu. I could see 5-6 different choices listed as Ubuntu
with different versions:
1. Are they all referring to some kernel build ?
2. If so, how do I identify my build from the rest of the builds ? Is
there a way to name my build so that I can easily identify it ?
My grub options looked like these :
