更改linux内核安装目录

Question

是否可以在安装自定义Linux内核时更改make install默认目标（/ boot /）。

Answer 1

Short answer

You need to use INSTALL_PATH environment variable to change installation directory.

Example:

$ export INSTALL_PATH=/tmp
$ make install

Details

From make help :

install - Install kernel using

• (your) ~/bin/installkernel or

• (distribution) /sbin/installkernel or

• install to $(INSTALL_PATH) and run lilo

From Documentation/kbuild/kbuild.txt :

INSTALL_PATH specifies where to place the updated kernel and system map images. Default is /boot , but you can set it to other values.

Also, from Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt :

INSTALL_PATH

This variable defines a place for the arch Makefiles to install the resident kernel image and System.map file. Use this for architecture-specific install targets.
