We need to modify the kernel configuration in at least two places. File systems-> Btrfs filesystem (EXPERIMENTAL) unstable disk format is marked before "Btrfs filesystem" <*> www.2cto.com Processor type and features-> Processor Family-> "our processor" to delete Dell laptop support and toshba Laptop support. Cut the sound card support. Cut down the Bluetooth subsystem support. Remove Wireless. Cut down the Kernel hacking.
