Compiling the Kernel and CFLAGS
Guys,
First up, I am a total noob. Never compiled anything from scratch in Ubuntu. Used Gentoo for a bit (relying on my l337 Google skills to fix problems), but not seriously.
I finished just compiling my kernel (took about 5 bloody hours) today. Is there any way I can set custom CFLAGS like it is shown in the Gentoo Handbook i.e is there a global /etc/make.conf file I can edit?
I want to compile the latest and greatest kernel from kernel.org.
Finally, is there a kernel specific benchmark to see if recompiling the kernel was worth my time?
Thanks!
