You have sucessfully build a kernel, you only forgot to set some |

options at the bootloader, you don't need other sources, you just need |
| 18 |
to set you kernel up. |

There's no easy alternative as long as you don't read the manual of |
| 21 |
your current alternative. |

read the manual, set the bootloader and be happy. |
