Показать описание

In this video I show you how to upgrade your kernel on Gentoo Linux, I go over the full steps from how to make newer kernels available, how to download them, compile them, and make them bootable. The commands used in this video are written below

1. emerge --sync
2. emerge -uDNq --with-bdeps=y
3. cp /usr/src/linux/.config $(uname -r).config

4. eselect kernel list
5. eselect kernel set "NEW KERNEL NUMBER"
become root, or add sudo to the beginning of the following commands
make mrproper
6. copy the configuration file you backed up in step 3
7. mount "boot partition" /boot (don't forget -U if using UUID)
8. make modules_prepare
9. make -j4 && make modules_install && make install

10. emerge @module-rebuild

12. Reboot into your new kernel, congratulations, you're done :D

Hey man, glad to see a Gentoo user gaining traction. I think you’re doing great so far. Hope you choose to stick around, because I will.

I see thumbnails made using the Smith's book.

Bless you dood. All your Gentoo stuff is Top Notch, this is even better explaned than the original documentation!

This thumbnail game is too strong :') and Im here for it!

You can set ~amd64 within your make.conf file that's what I do, I like living on the edge. :)

jajajajahahahahaja

Getting more and more intention to install gentoo again....

Cross our fingers, pray to Tux. Nice;)

This video is better then the gentoo documentation wtffff

FWIW if the package was already emerged before you should use -1 (--oneshot) option to emerge it again, like "emerge -1 gentoo-sources", if you check messages in your video before gentoo-sources start installing you can see that it's recording gentoo-sources in "world" file, you should avoid that if the package is already installed, something else pulled it if it's not in the world file.

nice channel bro... bench watching your videos!

Just watched your Thumbnail video on YouTube. It's pretty difficult but I'm willing to learn to make mine just as good as yours

Fantastic video. Very helpful. This kind of content that thoroughly and simply explains difficult situations (for a new gentoo user like myself) is the kind of stuff needed to increase gentoo usage and general understanding of a Linux system. Great work!

If you have a new hardware obviously you need the first kernel that supports your hardware.
But as normal update... it is better to wait until 5.9 LTS
Linus announces LTS kernel usually at x.4, x.9, x.14 and x.19
So there are no need to rush until 5.9 comes out.
I usually let to the gentoo developers to do a stabilization round to the LTS kernel before upgrade. You can open a ticket on bugzilla if you want a stabilization round.

EDIT: I will recomend you to put in the package.accept_keywords
~amd64

With this way you will only unmask several kernels from the same minor version.
The way you are doing is wrong because you will end up unmasking all versions and that is not what you meant to do.

For test-purposes i'm always leaving my kernel on super stable versions. Once its running like a charm (on systems where it doesnt have to run 24/7) i'll move closer to the edge ;)
