Hello - first of all, thank you so much for this project! It's resurrected an old Linkstation LS-WSXL for me, so I really appreciate your effort in maintaining this repo.

I wanted to understand the https://raw.githubusercontent.com/1000001101000/Debian_on_Buffalo/master/PPA source a bit better. What kind of updates come from that source, and where does the add generated package to repo commit come from? I couldn't see it in the GitHub workflows.

Thanks, Chris.

Good to hear from you!

Unfortunately, the last time I tried building a kernel via github actions it failed because the container the actions run in do not have enough CPU power to finish a build before the time limit.

I've got a cron job that checks for an updated linux-source package in the Debian repo each day and runs update_kernel_source.sh , build_kernel_armel.sh and variations of the commands in cmds.txt if a newer version is detected.
