Howtos - Building Custom Kernel Modules

Overview

Creating the environment for building custom kernels and kernel modules.

Install Developer Tools

Install the build tools and required kernel packages:

apt-get update
apt-get install cc-devel kernel-sourcecode kernel-devel

	Warning!

As of kernel version 2.6.9-10.cc, you need to install the kernel-devel package. This package installs files into /usr/src/kernels/(version)-(arch) and creates the requires /lib/modules/(version)/build directory.
