To build a monolithic kernel, follow the same steps as building a modularized kernel, with a few exceptions.
When configuring the kernel, do not compile anything as a module. In other words, only answer Yes or No to the questions. Also, you should answer No to kmod support and module version (CONFIG_MODVERSIONS) support.
Omit the following steps:
make modules make modules_install |
Edit lilo.conf to include the line append=nomodules or append the kernel line in grub.conf with nomodules.
