Erm, you still need superuser to boot and to install modules into /lib/modules/... My suggested solution to building kernels as non-root is to go the KBUILD_OUTPUT route. Since this would fully satisfy your request, without having to change perms I shall close this bug invalid. Although this document is now invalid.. I would point you to section 3 http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/2.6-koutput-user.xml |
