hi gang
so I’ve been working on this fully arm based homelab project and one of the things I decided to do is compile myself a Linux kernel with specific adjustments that suit my needs after building my own dtb.
I kept running into errors and went into the troubleshooting rabbit hole for 3 days to no avail until I decided to try it In a different distro (Ubuntu) and it just worked?!
I know I’m being very vague here but I’m curious if anyone faced a similar issue like this and I’d love to hear why
The dependency chain for building the entire kernel depends on what you included in the feature set. The reason it probably worked on Ubuntu is because the build-essential package covers the most common deps needed to build the kernel.
