Building Linux kernel​
If a customized repository exists for the board, clone or download it.
Download:
git clone https://github.com/torvalds/linux.git -b <tag or branch> --single-branch
cd linux
make distclean
make <board>_defconfig
tip
If the above command fails, check arch/<arch>/configs. If not in arch/<arch>/configs, get a config file using zcat /proc/config.gz > <board>_defconfig from the kernel installed on the desired board.
make -j$(expr $(expr $(nproc) \* 6) \/ 5)
/lib/modules​
sudo make modules_install ARCH=<architecture> INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/<path to>/rootfs && sync
BOOT​
sudo cp arch/<architecture>/boot/<image> arch/<architecture>/boot/dts/<board>.dtb /<path to>/BOOT && sync
