I have just compiled my kernel for the first time, at the end everything went well and I got no erros, but i still can't see it at the list of Available kernels in the grub. I use ubuntu 18.04, does anyone know what happened?
I have followed these steps:

  1. extracted the kernel into the folder /usr/src
  2. make menuconfig. Got no error
  3. make bzImage. No error
  4. make modules. No error
  5. make modules_install. No error
  6. make install. No error
  7. in the folder /boot i did mkinitramfs -o initrd.img-4.17.2 4.17.2
  8. last but not leat i updated the grup. update-grub

After last step i saw that the new compiled kernel was listed in the terminal's output but after i rebooted the system the new kernel wasn't there. What can i do to have it there?

A secondary question. Is that safe to remove files and folders created during the process inside /usr/src directory?

Well, I tried "update-grub" again and id didn't work, but I tried to do the same in my manjaro instalation and it now works well, seems like every grub-change must be donne in Manjaro I dont know why.
