# kbuild | kernel build script for dev/hacking

simple script for building the kernel for development and hacking purposes,

script is designed for `x86_64` builds, but you can easily change that

by doing a little bit of editing

### building 

to build a specific version with `x86_64_defconfig` and `CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y`,

just specify the version, for example:

```bash

./kbuild.sh 5.15.135

```

you can also build the staging kernel using `staging` as the version

to build using a specific config, specify config's path at the end:

```bash

./kbuild.sh 5.15.135 my-cool-config

```

### booting

you can also boot the kernel you built with QEMU/KVM, using the `kboot` script:

```bash

./kboot.sh 5.15.135 

```

by default, this script will build busybox for initramfs, however you can specify

a path to your own initramfs:

```bash

./kboot.sh 5.15.135 my-cool-initramfs.cpio.gz 

```

note that this will extract the initramfs to install the kernel modules
