You can override this default by specifying KERNELS=kernelname. For example, you can make two kernels - linux-2.6-xen0 and linux-2.6-xenU...

To make these two kernels, simply specify

KERNELS="linux-2.6-xen0 linux-2.6-xenU"

in the make command line.

To rebuild a kernel with a modified config:

# make linux-2.6-xen-config CONFIGMODE=menuconfig (or xconfig)

# make linux-2.6-xen-build

# make linux-2.6-xen-install

These information is on the README file... ;-)

Cheers!

Hi Thiago,

Thanks for the links, but I have another question:
I tried to compile the kernel that is withing this Xen version using:

make kernels

and it gives me as an option to configure the kernel through
"oldconfig". I want to configure it using "menuconfig".

How do I do that?
Is there any: make kernels CONFIGMODE=menuconfig ?

Thanks in advance.
Ronaldo.
