Build kernel linux in virtualbox machine Ubuntu 10.04

This post is useful only for me, for remember what command I have to launch for compiling the kernel on the MY VirtualBox machine with Ubuntu 10.04.

However it can be useful for a starting point for other people.

$ make menuconfig
This command open a graphics menu where I check the options that are written in this link http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Virtualbox_Guest

$ make

$ make modules

$ sudo make modules_install

$ sudo make install

$ cd /boot

$ sudo mkinitramfs -o initrd.img-2.6.32.60 2.6.32.60 (depends on the kernel version)

$ sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg (I'm using grub)

When reboot the machine hold shift for choose the kernel.
