This is Task 07 of the Eudyptula Challenge ------------------------------------------ Great work with that misc device driver. Isn't that a nice and simple way to write a character driver? Just when you think this challenge is all about writing kernel code, this task is a throwback to your second one. Yes, that's right, building kernels. Turns out that's what most developers end up doing: tons and tons of rebuilds, not writing new code. Sad, but it is a good skill to know. The task this round is: - Download the linux-next kernel for today. Or tomorrow, just use the latest one. It changes every day so there is no specific one you need to pick. Build it. Boot it. Provide proof that you built and booted it. What is the linux-next kernel? Ah, that's part of the challenge. For a hint, you should read the excellent documentation about how the Linux kernel is developed in Documentation/development-process/ in the kernel source itself. It's a great read, and should tell you all you never wanted to know about what Linux kernel developers do and how they do it. As always, please respond to this challenge with your id. I know you know what it is. I'll not even include it this time, I trust you. Don't make me feel that is a mistake.
