Support the Official Fedora Kernel #1

Closed LukeShortCloud closed 5 years ago

LukeShortCloud commented 6 years ago

Currently, this only supports a fork of the Fedora kernel configurations. With minimal modifications, this role should be able to handle the official kernel, too.

Different variable files should be provided to target upstream kernels or the fedora-kernel-lts fork. Documentation on how to use those should be added to the "Examples" section in the README.md file.

Work towards this has been started by: https://github.com/ekultails/ansible-role-fedora-kernel-lts/commit/e7720d97f962e51e14f6c500e7ebaca62d7c2ca3

LukeShortCloud commented 6 years ago

The stable kernel spec should not be forked and stored in this repository. Instead, we should rely on getting it from the official upstream Fedora or vanilla kernel repositories.

LukeShortCloud commented 5 years ago

It has been determined that supporting the stable kernel is outside the scope of this role. Closing.
