Subject: [Buildroot] Why linux26-modules before linux26
Date: Fri, 01 Aug 2008 21:34:36 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1217651676.6280.11.camel@kokopelli> (raw)
I have a kernel that does not want to compile the modules before the
rest of the kernel. I've worked around that, but it does raise a
question that maybe somebody knows the answer to, why are the makefiles
set to compile the kernel-modules so early compared to the rest of the
kernel?

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting a bad thing?
