### BUILD MODULES ### BUILD MODULES
Compile individual files for each question you answered M during kernel config. The object code is linked against your freshly built kernel. (For questions answered __Y__, these are already part of __vmlinuz__, and for questions answered __N__ they are skipped). Modules end with __.ko__. Modules end with __.ko__. They are individual files for each question you answered __M__ during kernel configuration. The object code is linked against your freshly built kernel as separate modules. Questions answered __Y__ were integrated into the kernel (__vmlinuz__), and for questions answered __N__ they were skipped (not compiled).
