        <p>Linux is a monolith kernel, a big one ! Visit
        <a href="http://www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/selibre/linux-libre/">Linux Libre</a>
        and
        <a href="https://www.kernel.org/">Linux Non-Libre</a> pages for more links
        and information.</p>

        <h2 id="#linuxlibre">2.3.1. Port Linux Libre</h2>

        <p>Collection c9-ports have linux-libre port with default crux
        configuration, this port depends on dracut and grub but is not
        required to install them. To build and install this port using
        prt-get;</p>

        <pre>
        $ prt-get depinst linux-libre
        </pre>

        <h2 id="kinstall">2.3.2. Manual Install</h2>

        <p>Download Linux Source from
        <a href="http://linux-libre.fsfla.org/pub/linux-libre/releases/">linux libre</a>,
        or using the port system;</p>

        <pre>
        $ cd /usr/ports/c9-ports/linux-libre
        $ sudo -u pkgmk pkgmk -do
        </pre>

        <p>Crux iso comes with config that is used in this port, is
        a good starting point to personalize according to your needs;</p>

        <pre>
        $ mkdir ~/kernel
        $ cd ~/kernel
        $ cp /usr/ports/c9-ports/linux-libre/linux-4.1.32.defconfig .
        $ cp /usr/ports/distfiles/linux-libre-4.1.32-gnu.tar.xz .
        $ tar xf linux-libre-4.1.32-gnu.tar.xz
        $ cp linux-4.1.32.defconfig linux-4.1.32/.config
        </pre>

        <p>Read <a href="https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Grsecurity/Configuring_and_Installing_grsecurity#Patching_Your_Kernel_with_grsecurity">Gresecurity</a>.</p>

        <p>Configure kernel according to your current kernel
        hardware support;</p>

        <pre>
        $ make localmodconfig
        </pre>

        <p>This will disable all unloaded modules,
        you can use localyesconfig mark all loaded
        to be built in the kernel.</p>

        <p>To get information about your hardware,
        for example information about which graphic
        module (driver) is in use as root run;</p>

        <pre>
        # lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use'
        Kernel driver in use: i915
        </pre>

        <p>Before start compiling check configuration;</p>

        <pre>
        $ make nconfig
        </pre>

        <pre>
        $ cd ~/linux-4.1.32/
        $ make -j $(nproc) all
        $ sudo make modules_install

        <h2 id="kuninstall">2.3.3. Manual Remove</h2>

        <pre>
        $ sudo rm -r /lib/modules/4.5.5-gnu
        $ sudo rm /boot/vmlinuz-4.5.5
