I decided to put my fingers where my mouth is and jump into kernel
development instead of just complaining. Configuring a machine
properly to do this most effectivally I guess is the next step. I only
have one machine (I have some modest but non-critical production stuff
that needs to continue working). Some options I have come up with:
1. Just hack my current sources and keep diffs (some automated way would
be nice of edit-->make diff)
2. Use QEMU to create a development machine
3. Someone said something about unionfs and/or using a cvs mirror but I
missed that completely missed that
Any other suggestions. Also since I tend to be a little slow on the
learning curve can you also point me to some good howto/tutorials on
what ever solution you suggest?
