Creating kernel offspin

[Let_Me_Be]

I want to create my own kernel build (patched for aufs2 support).

I managed to patch the kernel-default package from openSUSE:11.2:Updates, but the problem is that it still builds with the kernel-default package name.

This is a problem because the next step is to create a package for the aufs2 module which has to depend on my custom kernel.

Or is there a simpler way?

Hi
Why not just make a KMP of your module(s)?

Well, then I’m doing something wrong.

How do I patch the kernel through the kmp module? I did read the documentation, but it only describes a build of a simple module (no kernel patching).

Anyone got a hint?
