install vanilla kernel on raspberry pi2 - aleroot - 28th Mar, 2015 01:09 AM

Hi,
I've just installed XBian on my Raspberry Pi2 and I would want to install the latest vanilla linux kernel from : http://kernel.org, Do I have to include some patch or the compile/install phase is like in any other Debian x86 ?

Where I can find a .config with the standard configuration of XBian to load with make oldconfig ?

Thanks.

You will need the lz4 patch from the xbian-package-kernel git. Other than the lz4/bfq/bfs patches our kernel is vanilla.

You can find the configuration file here:

RPi 1: https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian-package-kernel/tree/master/extra-files/rpi-3.18.y

RPi 2: https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian-package-kernel/tree/master/extra-files/rpi2-3.18.y
