+==== Install and compile kernel ====
+=== Get the sources ===
+<code>
+$ cd ..
+$ git clone https://github.com/linux-sunxi/linux-sunxi.git
+$ cd linux-sunxi
+$ git checkout sunxi-3.4
+</code>
+=== Prepare the kernel ===
+Use default config to get something to start with
+<code>
+$ CROSS_COMPILE=armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi- ARCH=arm make sun7i_defconfig
+</code>
+Tweak your kernel according to your wishes
+<code>
+$ CROSS_COMPILE=armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi- ARCH=arm make menuconfig
+</code>
+<WRAP round tip>
+**The kernel seems to fail to compile when the following settings are enabled:**
+  * Networking support -> [*] RF Switch subsystem support
+    //Solution: Disable RF Switch subsystem support (not needed on CB2 anyways).//
+  * Power Management options -> [*] Run-time PM core functionality
+    //Solution: Disable Run-time PM core functionality or apply the following patch.//
