Is there any way to recompile the kernel after making a
configuration change (soundcard IRQ, DMA etc.) without
having to remake every object from the beginning?
After making my modification, I did 'make' and I had
to wait a long time as everything was recreated, even
the file system objects, that have nothing to do with sound.
Single-file remakes should be possible for both kernel-included
objects as well as external module objects. Maybe it's even
possible to reboot the kernel with temporary IRQ/DMA changes
without having to recompile anything, as is the case with
video modes. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
By the way, this is the new kernel 2.0.36 that I am working on.
Also, is there a list of where one can obtain the very latest
compilers and libraries needed to compile the 2.1.x kernels?
These will not compile at all with the tools released in
popular distributions (Slackware, Redhat, Debian, etc.).
