Cape: It's not normal. I assume you follow "Processor type and features ---> Processor family", right? Can you be more specific? (i686 or x86_64? makepkg or yaourt/clyde? etc) I also assume of course that you answer 'y' to "==> Run make menuconfig before build? (y/N)"

Maybe i'm doing something wrong, but i'm not able to choose my cpu family in menuconfig. It's the same if i choose locamodconfig, running kernel or stock... I just can't edit that entry. Is it normal?

Thank you Christos. I will try the prebuild version from your repo first. :-)

litemotiv: that option is for users that already have a tailored kernel for their systems and don't want to compile the entire kernel tree. Using that option entails manual configuring of the uncovered options the pf-patchset provides, i.e. what you were asked and it's normal. Had you answered 'yes' to 'make menuconfig' question before, you'd be directed to the more user-friendly menu configuration. If you used that option on, say, the stock -ARCH kernel you'd have no gain whatsoever, since that's a generic kernel. You'd have to deselect the unneeded options/modules one by one, but that's usually a one-time chore. Google for 'kernel configure' for more. As for the compilation error, I haven't bumped into it, ever. I compile 6 i686 and 5 x86_64 pf-kernels for my unofficial repo and I've never seen that error. What's worse, that's an assembler error and I hate x86 assembly. Have you tried a clean compile? A different binutils version?

Thanks for this, nice installer too. :-) Two questions: I chose the current-running-kernel config option, this then gave a lot of the PF-specific options a default value of No (example: BFQ [N/y/m/]). Is this fixable, or is it just the way it works? Secondly, i'm getting a compilation error: AS arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.o arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S: Assembler messages: arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S:1531: Error: .size expression does not evaluate to a constant Is this just a temporary source problem that i have to wait a bit for to get fixed? Thanks again, -lite

Changelog of pf4 to pf5: BFQ updated to version 2.

Indeed, I had uploaded a previous source tarball without the relevant patch line. Nice catch.

I installed this kernel for the b44 fix, but I still got a kernel panic when trying to connect via ethernet. I looked at the swiotlb.c file and the patch wasn't being applied, so I modified the PKGBUILD to apply the included patch and now it works. I'm not sure if this is as expected or not...
