Compile Linux kernel for Ubuntu Updated +Created
This section describes our attempts at compiling the Linux kernel for Ubuntu so as to use the exact patches and build configuration as used for a given Ubuntu release. The same toolchain would also be ideal, but perhaps this would require a Linux distribution buildable from source.
canonical-kteam-docs.readthedocs-hosted.com/en/public/how-to/build-kernel.html seems promising it says that for Ubuntu 24.04 and above you should do the following which was tested on Ubuntu 24.10:
sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list~
sudo sed -Ei 's/^# deb-src /deb-src /' /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt build-dep -y linux linux-image-unsigned-$(uname -r)
sudo apt install -y fakeroot llvm libncurses-dev dwarves
apt source linux-image-unsigned-$(uname -r)
~/tmp/ubuntu/linux-6.11.0
cd linux-6.11.0
chmod a+x debian/rules
chmod a+x debian/scripts/*
chmod a+x debian/scripts/misc/*
fakeroot debian/rules clean
fakeroot debian/rules binary
The build is extremely slow compared to a build of a more embedded and specifically targeted minimal kernel, and took about 2 hours on P14s. Their philosophy is likely to enable as many drivers as possible so that a single download will work for everyone. Which makes sense, fair enough. It would be cute though if there was a smarter way. Oh well.
After it finally finishes the build including our vmlinux is present at:
linux-6.11.0/debian/build/build-generic
quickemu serial without GUI Updated +Created
This would serve as a good workaround for the lack of clipboard and the default annoyiance of mouse capture!
I don't see how to get it working out of box immediately, but after you do on guest:
sudo apt install openssh-server
then the host terminal tells you the ssh command e.g.:
ssh user@localhost -p 22220
and that worked. You can also quickemu with:
quickemu --display none
to not get any annoying GUI.
