Hi Greg,
No I did not know about 'make localmodconfig'. Can you kindly explain. As far as the change is concerned I am planning to change a few things and experiment, so there is nothing specific.

Thanks,

Hi,
Can someone suggest what is the fastest way to build a minimal kernel and boot. For example if I am working on TCP and would like to make a small change and reboot, what is the fastest way, I rather not build the whole kernel.
Why would you need to rebuild the whole kernel? What did you change that required everything to be rebuilt?
And a working kernel can normally be built, from scratch, in just a few minutes. You do know about 'make localmodconfig' right?
thanks,
