Subject: Re: Building kernel and bzimage to UEFI

Henrique,

Quickly,
Above I said "after Stage0 done do butch install stage1 kernel core.
Then changeroot..."   I should have said changeroot after Stage 0 is built
and THEN butch install stage1 kernel core.  You need core built for ncurses
for make menuconfig to work.

whoops,

Will
