[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] Kernel compilation on Nokia 770

[From: Andrey Khurri]

Hi all,

I need to compile certain version of kernel with some patches on my 
Nokia 770. Let's say version 2.6.13.1
I had a look at "HowTo KernelCompilation 
<http://maemo.org/maemowiki/HowTo_KernelCompilation>" on maemo.org. It 
uses scratchbox for that. I've got already scratchbox environment working.
What is not obvious to me is how to use this algorithm in my case. 
Should I add an entry to /etc/apt/sources.list which would link to a 
repository with the needed kernel version? In the given example the 
kernel source they fetch is "kernel-source-2.6.12.3-osso22.tar.gz" I am 
not sure whether this is kind of specific kernel source for Nokia 770. 
If so where I can get the same but for higher version (2.6.13.1)? As 
well as this the content and intention of packages "kernel-package 
8.083.tar.gz" and "su-18 kernel package"  are not clear to me.

I guess it is also feasible to put all the sources to Tablet and start 
compilation process there in usual way. But in that case it would be 
much slower and the memory size needs to be tremendous. Am I wrong?

If somebody has related experience I would be glad to see any comments 
here or some other HowTo or links...
