Updating Linux Kernel Manually in GUIX system

Updating Linux Kernel Manually in GUIX system

[AMIR ZAQUAN BIN YAZID / UPM]

Greetings

I would like to ask regarding updating the Linux Kernel manually.

I am trying to update the Linux Kernel for GUIX system manually for an
assignment. Everything seems fine until I reach the step of copying an
existing Linux Kernel configuration.

when I input :

$ cp -v /boot/config-$(uname -r) cd verif.config

the result says no such file directory for the current Linux Kernel config
which is 5.11.15.

In addition,  when I tried to guix install some development tools such as
libelf and libssl , guix install error : unknown package was obtained.

From a running guix system you can get the kernel config from
/run/current-system/kernel/.config

I think, the packages you are looking for are libelf and openssl.
