[Buildroot] modify kernel source code

[Ron Eggler]

Hi,

I want to modify the kernel source code after it's been downloaded
according to these instructions in order to get a driver for my Novatel
MC679 compiled. How can I interrupt the buildroot process once the kernel
sources have been downloaded or how else can I/should I do this?

Thank you for any suggestions!
Ron

See the BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_PATCH configuration parameter.

create a patch file with diff that goes in that dir?

Does the configuration parameter have the word: "Patch" or the word: "Source"
in its name?
