Hi Everyone,

Sorry for a very amateur question. Could anyone just help me get  
started with compiling the linux kernel from the wireless-testing  
tree? I just pulled the local wireless-testing repo, trying to  
navigate through the code, and wanted to compile the kernel, and to  
boot up to it. Could anyone just help me get started?

I followed the instructions from http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/compiling-linux-kernel-26.html
and ended up with a compile error in 'make', while trying to create  
the bzimage. (error is on make: initramfs_data.cpi.o failed)

Is there any other easy way to compile the kernel/debug.


Thanks

Balaji R
