This kernel compiled using this source tree will not work with newer versions or older versions of L4T, only 28.2.</em> |

6 | 6 | As of this writing, the "official" way to build the Jetson TX2 kernel is to use a cross compiler on a Linux PC. This is an alternative which builds the kernel onboard the Jetson itself. These scripts will download the kernel source to the Jetson TX2, and then compile the kernel and selected modules. The newly compiled kernel can then be installed. The kernel sources and build objects consume ~3GB. |

This is useful when working through SSH, have a preference to edit the .config through a text editor or some other manner (e.g. nconfig), or have a predefined .config file you would like to substitute. |
