I am installing Debian10 (armhf) on a virtual machine in QEMU, like this:
Download this netboot/initrd.gz
Download this netboot/vmlinuz
Create an empty disk image with:
qemu-img create -f qcow2 hda.qcow2 8G
Run the
debian-installerin QEMU with:qemu-system-arm -M virt -m 1024 -kernel vmlinuz -initrd initrd.gz -drive if=none,file=hda.qcow2,format=qcow2,id=hd -device virtio-blk-device,drive=hd -netdev user,id=mynet -device virtio-net-device,netdev=mynet -nographic -no-reboot
The debian-installer runs, asks me some basic questions with some text menus, does its job, detects devices and successfully installs a fully functional Debian10 OS.
THE QUESTION: How to specify additional Kernel Configuration Options, e.g.: CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS = y to this installation procedure, so that the debian-installer builds the Kernel with these options set ?
It does not matter if you don't know about the CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS kernel config option. Even some info how to pass additional parameters to the debian-installer (kernel builder) in this scenario, would help.
