Hi,

two questions:

1.) I want to build a kernel, which is nearly monolithic. Everything,
which can be build inside of kernel is built inside of kernel. But I
also need some external modules (lirc). Do I have to run

make modules_install

if I do not build any modules but use external modules like lirc?

2.) If I have to run "make modules_install", can I do this before I run
"make" to compile the kernel image?

Regards,
Marc
