This is Task 03 of the Eudyptula Challenge
------------------------------------------
Now that you have your custom kernel up and running, it's time to modify
it!
The tasks for this round are:
- Take the kernel git tree from Task 02 and change the Makefile to
modify the EXTRAVERSION field. Do this in a way that the
running kernel (after modifying the Makefile, rebuilding, and
rebooting) has the characters "-eudyptula" in the version string.
- Show proof of booting this kernel. Extra cookies when you provide
creative examples, especially if done in interpretive dance at your
local pub.
- Send a patch that shows the Makefile modified. Do this in a manner
that would be acceptable for merging in the kernel source tree.
(Hint, read the file Documentation/SubmittingPatches and follow the
steps there.)
Remember to use your ID assigned in the subject line when responding to
this task, so that I can figure out who to attribute it to.
If you forgot, your id is "[redacted]". Surely I don't need to keep
saying this right? I know, _you_ wouldn't forget, but someone else, of
course they would, so I'll just leave it here for those "others."
