(WARNING: slightly self-serving post, but i figure i've built up at least a touch of goodwill over the years.) first, for the sake of a course i'm writing, i'd like to refer to what is the current, canonical recipe for configuring and building an up-to-date kernel for fedora (ideally from the current git tree). i have a fairly stock recipe from about a year ago but if there's a single page out there that is *the* fedora-approved way to do it, that would be terrific, i'd just link to it. now, about the "course" (and here's the self-serving part), i think i've already mentioned previously that i'm in the midst of writing and publishing an online course in introductory linux kernel programming: http://crashcourse.ca/introduction-linux-kernel-programming/introduction-linux-kernel-programming the self-serving part is that it's not free. while the first few lessons are publicly available (and, admittedly, slanted towards ubuntu but i already have plans to go back on the next pass and add in RH/fedora alternatives for everything), if you decide you want to take the entire online course, the cost is all of $39 (CAD). that's not $39 per lesson, that's for the ***entire course***. and given that several of those lessons are freely available to everyone, you can certainly peruse them as much as you want at no risk before deciding. about half the lessons are now up, and here's what is probably the final course outline: http://crashcourse.ca/introduction-linux-kernel-programming/course-overview-and-syllabus at this point, you can pretty much read the rest and decide whether you're interested. registered students get access to a course mailing list where they can chat with other students and get help from each other and, in a pinch, they can email me as well. ok, i think i've yammered on long enough. rday p.s. i'm well aware that there are people who are already pretty darned good at kernel programming and don't represent a potential (paying) student, but would still be interested in checking out the course. if you fall into that category, here's what i've done for a few people already. you can register for a user account at crashcourse.ca, then drop me a note and i can just quietly reconfigure your account so that you can read everything. just make the case that it's in my best interests to give you a free subscription, and i'll take it from there. :-) p.p.s. i'm at ottawa linux symposium this week but probably not right to the very end so if you want to hook and chat over a beer or something, drop me a note. -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
