<p>Hello, two quick questions:</p>
<ul>
<li>Is there someone here using Ubuntu (16.04 LTS) with a hard RT
PREEMPT kernel?</li>
<li>Can he tell me how to obtain it? Probably not pre-built from a
repository/ppa, I've done my homework and found two that seem
nothing but dead :</li>
<ul>
<li><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://launchpad.net/~abogani/+ppa-packages">https://launchpad.net/~abogani/+ppa-packages</a></li>
<li><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://launchpad.net/~linux-libre/+archive/ubuntu/rt-ppa">https://launchpad.net/~linux-libre/+archive/ubuntu/rt-ppa</a><br>
</li>
</ul>
</ul>
<p>Otherwise, I guess I'll have to build it. Never done it. I've
compiled all sort of stuff, but never a kernel. Now what would be
the easiest way? By easy, in fact, I only mean scriptable. Ideally
something like<br>
</p>
<ul>
<li>Get the latest kernel sources package with apt</li>
<li>Fetch the corresponding patch (this is the hard part for me,
I'm a bit lost in versions)<br>
</li>
<li>Apply the patch, build the kernel and install it</li>
</ul>
<p>The idea being to be able to repeat the procedure when a new
kernel is out in the lifespan of my Ubuntu version, to stay up to
date.<br>
</p>
<p>Any pointers? Thanks for your patience. Note that if I manage to
get a fairly repeatable procedure, I'll write a tutorial about it.
Cordialement,<br>
