Hello Lewis,
I would really like to know how you guys do your kernel development. What distro do you use and whats the process?
I’m very comfortable with debian, but i’ve heard it’s not the easiest distro to build kernels for as you need to build to a .deb and apply it that way.
I'm also using Debian. That is not true at all. The guide on the Kernel Newbies Website [1] works flawlessly. The only downside would be, that in case you decide to remove a build you have to delete the image, modules, etc. by hand and additionaly run update-grub whereas creating a package does that for you.
