Do you mean installing what we already have as a result of building
a debug kernel? In that case, this is already easily done by:
make buildkernel CONFIGARGS=3D-g
make installkernel
mkdir -p /usr/somewhere
make installkernel.debug KODIR=3D/usr/somewhere
As a result of running this, I have:
ru# ls -1 /usr/somewhere/ |grep '\.ko\.debug' |wc -l
386
ru# ls -1 /usr/somewhere/ | grep -v '\.ko\.debug'=20
kernel.debug
linker.hints
Cheers,
