(Second this request) About 'make modules_prepare'
I'm also a bit confused as to the importance of the make modules_prepare command. I see from /usr/src/linux/Makefile that the target results in calls to other targets but once getting into the rabbit hole, I also started finding myself a tad confused. — The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cajacaliente (talk • contribs)

Add genkernel instructions
I originally used genkernel to install the kernel. The important part to me is updating the new config from the old kernel. I think there should be a section on updating to the new kernel using genkernel.--Moaxcp (talk) 18:09, 21 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Good point. I'll add this to my list of thing to do. Also, don't forget to use a signature following your commend on discussion pages! :) --Maffblaster (talk) 17:59, 21 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Have you read the Genkernel? Does it contain the information you are looking for? --Maffblaster (talk) 18:30, 21 May 2015 (UTC)
