Nooby question on kernel.... 12 August 2024, 09:41:26 I installed a realtime kernel using pacman but I need to change a thing (I need alsa in kernel space, not as module).If I change it in the .config file, may I still updating/upgrading the kernel simply using the pacman -Syu command after recompilation?
Re: Nooby question on kernel.... Reply #1 – 12 August 2024, 09:54:10 No you would want to install the locally built linux and linux-headers packages with pacman -UAnd you should add linux and linux-headers to IgnorePkg in /etc/pacman.conf. Otherwise your modified kernel will get replaced next time there is an update to it.
