I usually do it quick and dirty when I try things out and just copy Image to /boot/efi and the modules to /lib/modules manually... but make backups before you do that in case your new kernel doesn't work as expected or something goes wrong while moving the files around...
I guess with more and more people building their own configs and kernel versions, we need to write some tutorial on how to do that on ARM boards, but it's not really different from PC's, just that usually there is u-boot instead of grub and the additional issue of updating the dtb (devicetree) in case there were changes in the hardware config...
Hmm. Will do. On another note, how does one manually create / install a new initrd image? The usual tools seem to be missing from the depo.
Normally, I'd just:
Code:
make-kpkg --initrd --revision=1.0.custom kernel_imageBut make-kpkg seems to be missing.
