13 When it comes to kernel nothing is fully automatic.
14
15 Go though these commands:
16
17 cd /usr/src
18 rm linux
19
20 eselect kernel list
21 eselect kernel set #
22
23 or
24 ln -sfn linux-new_kernel-gentoo linux
25
26 cd linux
27 cp ../linux-old_kernel/.config .
28 make oldconfig
29 [just keep hitting enter]
30 make menuconfig
31
32 You are not done yet!
33
34 1.) At this point you must copy new kernel to your boot directory.
35 2.) emerge --ask -vq @module-rebuild rebuild
36 3.) must run to update grub menu entries eg.:
37 # grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
38
39 4.) What else did I miss? (somebody correct me).
