Needs to be adjusted for other archs

Locations/paths of build config files
My goal is to build the Virt (not Standard/LTS) kernel using the defaults for Virt, and I don't understand which files are needed in exactly which paths.
I had difficulty understanding the excerpt below. Is anyone willing to assist me in understanding it? For example, where/what is the "linux-4.15" folder?
- When you are done with your edits either by editing directly the APKBUILD and copying the lts.ARCH.config as .config in the linux-4.15 folder. You will then move the .config back overriding the lts.ARCH.config generated by make menuconfig.

build_NAME
After you are done using the menu in the build-NAME folder by doing make menuconfig
It is really not clear what is meant by "the build-NAME folder" here.
Locations/Paths and Build-Name Answer
Usually these are the directories you would look for in linux-lts apk package development (replace "x86_64" with different $ARCH if needed) (replace $YOUR_WORK_DIR to which directory you downloaded aports to),
Below should contain lts.x86_64.config, virt.x86_64.config and .patch files (and more $ARCH's by default, but to keep it simple, I will just state the x86_64 files)
$YOUR_WORK_DIR/aports/main/linux-lts
ALL .patch files that are in $YOUR_WORK_DIR/aports/main/linux-lts are also in below
$YOUR_WORK_DIR/aports/main/linux-lts/src
Below is a tar compressed linux file that decompresses into linux-$VERSION
$YOUR_WORK_DIR/aports/main/linux-lts/src/linux-$VERSION.tar.gz
$YOUR_WORK_DIR/aports/main/linux-lts/src/linux-$VERSION
$YOUR_WORK_DIR/aports/main/linux-lts/src/build-lts.x86_64
$YOUR_WORK_DIR/aports/main/linux-lts/src/build-virt.x86_64
After you are done using the menu in the build-NAME folder by doing make menuconfig
the "build-NAME" folder should actually be $YOUR_WORK_DIR/aports/main/linux-lts/src/linux-$VERSION
do make menuconfig within $YOUR_WORK_DIR/aports/main/linux-lts/src/linux-$VERSION and copy the .config file to $YOUR_WORK_DIR/aports/main/linux-lts/lts.x86_64.config and/or $YOUR_WORK_DIR/aports/main/linux-lts/virt.x86_64.config
