genkernel:tldr:74900
This command is executed in a Linux system and involves the use of the "sudo" command, which grants the user superuser privileges to run a specific command.
The command itself, "genkernel", is a tool commonly used in Linux distributions (such as Gentoo) to generate a customized kernel.
The "--kernname=${custom_name}" portion is an option provided by the genkernel command. By using this option, the user can specify a custom name for the kernel they want to generate. "${custom_name}" is a placeholder that should be replaced with the desired name of the kernel.
Lastly, the "all" argument means that genkernel will build all necessary components of the kernel, including the kernel itself, any necessary modules, and related files. This ensures that all required components are included when generating the kernel.
