Kerneler simplifies Ubuntu kernel compilation with its easy to use GUI, eliminating the need for shell commands. This BASH script is an efficient tool that requires minimal user input.
Kerneler is a software tool designed to simplify and streamline the process of compiling the Linux kernel. This BASH script offers users the option to compile the kernel using menus and interfaces, eliminating the need for shell commands. The tool caters to both novice and experienced users, providing a user-friendly interface that is easy to navigate. With the Kerneler project, users can choose between a shell-based interface or a GTK+ based interface, depending on their preference.
Kerneler simplifies the process of kernel compilation, making it an accessible task for users who may be intimidated by the prospect. The tool features an automatic downloader that allows users to download vanilla sources quickly and easily. Additionally, it includes an extractor, which extracts the sources following the download. With Kerneler's version manager, users can upgrade or downgrade their kernel quickly without downloading large files, saving time and effort.
Kerneler also includes a patcher, allowing users to patch their kernels with ck, mm or beyond patches. The tool can copy the old configuration of the kernel and run make menuconfig, simplifying the configuration process. Kerneler creates packages from the sources following the user's instructions, compiling and installing the kernel automatically. The tool generates a .html report of the hardware components installed on the computer using the hardware menu, providing an overview of the current setup.
The installation of Kerneler is straightforward, and the tool works efficiently on debian-based distributions. However, users need to have a set of requirements in place, including bash, dialog, wget, gawk, tar, bzip2, less, sed, kernel-package, patch, build-essential, fakeroot, gnupg, lshw, zenity, libqt3-mt-dev libqt3-headers, libglade0-dev libglade2-dev libgtk2.0-dev, libncurses5-dev, dh-make, debhelper, debconf, libstdc++5, and module-assistant, to use the tool.
With this new release, Kerneler has corrected some bugs, making the software even more stable and reliable. Overall, Kerneler is an excellent software tool that simplifies the process of kernel compilation, providing a user-friendly interface and reducing the need for shell commands.
