On an Intel machine, this makes me want to compile my kernel so much

I should learn how to compile RPM kernels on COPR

Compiling has never been the hard part. The challenge is making it through the entire configuration menu system before succumbing to the urge to gouge your own eyes out with blunt sticks.

Once that's done, kick off make take a long break; it'll be compiled by the time you get back to it.

I hear build times are getting longer with the Rust parts, though, so do it soon before you need mainframe access to get a compile within your lifetime.

The thing is I need to configure, compile, package, sign and then layer, because I am on Fedora Atomic (and because that is the correct way)

And I dont know many of the steps in the middle.

A Github runner for this would be great, like a template where people can choose what kernel they need, which then packages it.
