#!/bin/bash
# Script for compiling a Linux kernel with the PREEMPT_RT real-time patch with a simple graphical interface
# Tobit Flatscher - github.com/2b-t (2022)
#
# Usage:
# - '$ ./compile_kernel_preemptrt' and follow through the installation with a graphic user interface
# - Select a PREEMPT_RT version at https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/"
#   and run this script with '$ sudo ./compile_kernel_preemptrt 5.10.78-rt55'
