How build the Alpine Linux kernel
A customized build of the Alpine Linux kernel may be needed if you are experimenting with adding/removing kernel features and modules. The Alpine kernel extends the standard Linux kernel and builds within 5 minutes to few hours (depending on the speed of your system). The kernel is built using abuild and aports.
Before you start
A running instance of Alpine Linux and a non-root user are required to use abuild.
Build & install the kernel
Build
Run as root:
apk add alpine-sdk # install required packages addgroup USERNAME abuild # your non-root user
Run as non-root user:
git clone --depth 1 https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports.git abuild-keygen --append # build/install the kernel cd aports/main/linux-lts/ time abuild -crK
Install
apk add /home/USERNAME/packages/.....................................
