I have a small rootfs. It is too small to put all the modules there without gzipping it first. So installing it requires lots of sweating. That is why I was wondering if there is a (more/less easy) way to make the "make modules_install" command gzip the modules "on the fly". 2. I modified the sources and after compilation the string "g76f6e1f-dirty" was appended to the kernel version. It is a bit annoying because of the lack of the space at the rootfs. Is there a way to avoid this kind of a version extension?? Thanks for your help in advance.
