Thanks! It seems..it didn't work for me, probably I'm doing something wrong.

KERNELRELEASE="6.3.0-rc1-gpiccoli" make all -j128
Does it make sense for you? It gets me:


$ file arch/x86/boot/bzImage

arch/x86/boot/bzImage: Linux kernel x86 boot executable bzImage, version
6.3.0-rc1-gpiccoli-00003-gb6224c91dbaa (gpiccoli@buildbox2) [...]


Thanks in advance,
