<para>Building the kernel involves a few steps: configuring it and compiling
it. There are a few ways to configure the kernel. If you don't like the
way this book does it, read the <filename>README</filename> that comes
with the kernel source tree, and find out what the options are. The
following commands are run to build the kernel:</para>
<para><screen><userinput>cd /usr/src/linux &&</userinput>
<userinput>make mrproper &&</userinput>
<userinput>make menuconfig &&</userinput>
<userinput>make dep &&</userinput>
<userinput>make bzImage &&</userinput>
<userinput>make modules &&</userinput>
<userinput>make modules_install &&</userinput>
<userinput>cp -f arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/lfskernel &&</userinput>
<userinput>cp -f System.map /boot</userinput></screen></para>
<para>Note: the arch/i386/boot/bzImage path may vary on
different platforms.</para>
