I have had a few requests to walk through a linux kernel source build from start to finish, so today I am going to use Debian 12 stable as my starting point and I am going to compile and install the lated (as of today) Linux Kernel 6.7.9. I will also discuss some of the reasons why you might want to compile a Linux Kernel in this video.
