#      Easily build a kernel for Ubuntu-based distributions.      #
#                                                                 #
# NOTE:                                                           #
#  Substitute version (currently set for v5.6) by replacing the   #
#  appropriate version you want to build by going to kernel.org   #
#  and finding the one you want. Very simple.                     #
