Topic: How to install another Gnu-linux-libre kernel?

Hi all. As a libre user I would like to install a different kernel. How can I do it ? For example, I want to install the Parabola Gnu-linux-libre kernel

https://repo.parabola.nu/libre/os/x86_64/

Below is an example of how it works for example with Devuan, that is, I can use the Gnu-linux-libre kernel in Devuan.

Re: How to install another Gnu-linux-libre kernel?

Jim, you are using a source-based system. You were shown several times how to use packaging-scripts. So you should be able to identify the current source-files from Parabola and what to do with them: https://git.parabola.nu/abslibre.git/tr … inux-libre

You are referring to binary packages, which is in fact not the way Hyperbola works. You should build that from source and when done you should be able to do that with any version you like.
