# Proxmox Edge kernels
Custom Linux kernels for Proxmox VE 7 arm64
#### Available Versions
1. Linux 6.2 ->branch:v6.1
2. Linux 6.1 ->branch:v6.1
3. Linux 5.15 ->master
## Installation
add arm64 kernel repo.
```sh
echo "deb https://mirrors.apqa.cn/proxmox/ pvearmkernel main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-arm64-kernel.list
apt update
apt search pve-kernel
```
### Manual
Alternatively, you may manually install the kernels. Select from the [Releases](https://github.com/fabianishere/pve-edge-kernel/releases)
page the kernel version you want to install and download the appropriate Debian package.
Then, you can install the package as follows:
```sh
apt install ./pve-kernel-VERSION_amd64.deb
```
## Building manually
You may also choose to manually build one of these kernels yourself.
#### Prerequisites
Make sure you have at least 10 GB of free space available and have the following
packages installed:
```bash
apt install devscripts debhelper equivs git
```
#### Obtaining the source
Obtain the source code as follows:
```bash
git https://github.com/jiangcuo/pve-arm64-kernel
cd pve-arm64-kernel
```
Then, select the branch of your likings (e.g. `v6.1`) and update the submodules:
```bash
git checkout v6.1
git submodule update --init --depth=1 --recursive linux
git submodule update --init --recursive
```
#### Building
First, generate the Debian control file for your kernel by running the following
in your command prompt:
```bash
debian/rules debian/control
```
Before we build, make sure you have installed the build dependencies:
```bash
sudo mk-build-deps -i
```
merge your confile,if your kernel config is `/boot/config-5.10.167-edge`,do
```bash
cat /boot/config-5.10.167-edge >> debian/config/config.pve
```
Invoking the following command will build the kernel and its associated packages:
```bash
debuild -ePVE* --jobs=auto -b -uc -us
```
The Makefile provides several environmental variables to control:
1. `PVE_KERNEL_CC`
The compiler to use for the kernel build.
2. `PVE_KERNEL_CFLAGS`
The compilation options to use for the kernel build. Use this variable to specify
the optimization level or micro architecture to build for.
Kernel options may be controlled from [debian/config/config.pve](debian/config/config.pve). To build with
additional patches, you may add them to the [debian/patches/pve](debian/patches/pve) directory
and update the [series](debian/patches/series.linux) file accordingly.
## Removal
Use `apt` to remove individual kernel packages from your system. If you want
to remove all packages from a particular kernel release, use the following
command:
```bash
apt remove pve-kernel-6.1* pve-headers-6.1*
```
