please merge with Rebuilding_OLPC_kernel

At the least the parts about installing the kernel RPM and cp -a /boot ... should be on http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Rebuilding_OLPC_kernel. It took me a little while to find it (cjb pointed me to this page via #olpc...)

I'm trying out a merged page at MTDKernelRebuild that might be interesting.

A merge appears to be completed. Rebuilding_OLPC_kernel now redirects to Kernel. --Quozl 23:45, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

required minimum packages and file ownership

Fedora 11 package unifdef was required by the xo_1_5-kernel-rpm target, fix is to install it:

yum install unifdef

Some files must be owned as root for the kernel-rpm targets to work, quick fix is to change ownership of all files before running make:

chwon -R root:root .
