But now I am a little clueless: how do I install this kernel? Any hint?
It should have produced one or more .deb files and you can install a .deb file
like this: `apt install ./<name-of-debfile>.deb`
If you share the output of `ls -lh *.deb` (and/or `ls -lh ../*.deb`) then I
can probably give you more precise instructions.
Sorry, my fault. I searched for .deb files in the subdirectory when I
thought I searched the home directory. I am familiar with installing a
.deb file.
So we have:
~/Patches$ l *.deb

I gave it a shot and ran
# apt install /home/olaf/Patches/*.deb
Result:
# aptitude search linux-image | grep ^i
i linux-image-6.1.0-0.a.test-amd64-unsigned - Linux 6.1 for 64-bit PCs
i A linux-image-6.1.0-10-amd64 - Linux 6.1 for 64-bit PCs (signed)
i linux-image-6.1.0-9-amd64 - Linux 6.1 for 64-bit PCs (signed)
i linux-image-amd64 - Linux für 64-Bit-PCs (Metapaket)
i linux-image-amd64-signed-template - Template for signed linux-image packages for amd64
Booted in the new kernel.
# uname -r
6.1.0-0.a.test-amd64
Graphics works now.
I guess I am supposed to build some more kernels with subsets of
patches? Any hint where to start?
Cheers,
Olaf
