Quote (newby @ July 23 2006,18:36) | _AND_ learn the unique tweeks that have been done to the DSL kernel. They violated a lot of the "rules" in order to get a working stripped-down version.
I don't think John or Roberts will tell you what they did. My best guess is it was a long, hard process of learning by trial and error. |
http://dsl.thegeekery.com/archive/sources-2.1/ (Kernel sources + patches for the 2.4.31 kernel on DSL) -- Like almost all distributions, the kernel patches and config are available. (I have an even more stripped down kernel running on my computer, with only the drivers I need. However, it takes a few minutes of reading to work out which subsystems depend on each other.)
Building the 2.6 kernel he wants for aircrack himself may be a little more difficult though - it will likely be best to build the kernel on another machine, on a full sized distro, and then install it on his target machine.
-------------- System: eTower 566.12, 32MB RAM, 7GB HD, 200MB swap, 1x USB v.1, Intel 810GFX, Intel 810 Audio. Recompiled so far: Pretty much everything. I think I'll have to do a remaster to cut the growing bloat off my system.
