#Switching The KernelDoing this isn’t particularly hard. However, keep in mind that it will overwrite any special modifications you’ve already done to the kernel, and will break on upgrades to the kernel
#In order to keep things simple, I have a repository with pre-made kernel modules and kernel image. If you’d like to view the source this is based on, click here. [2]
#To grab the pre-compiled kernel and modules:
cd ~
sudo apt-get install git
git clone https://github.com/davidk/adafruit-raspberrypi-linux-pps.git
#Back up and copy the kernel image
cd adafruit-raspberrypi-linux-pps
sudo mv /boot/kernel.img /boot/kernel.img.orig
sudo cp kernel.img /boot
#Move the modules over
sudo mv modules/* /lib/modules
#Finally, add the pps-gpio module to /etc/modules.We run this command in a sub-shell so appending works
sudo sh -c “echo ‘pps-gpio’ >> /etc/modules”
#Now Reboot the PI
sudo reboot

#Installing and Configuring NTPTo install NTP, we abuse the default install a bit since the repository version doesn’t really pick up on 1PPS. It will also take some time to do all of this since we’re compiling from scratch.
# Latest Version at time of writing this install script was 4.2.7p431 March 5th 2014

#The next steps are to install the gpsd software, and start the gpsd service pointing to the device name just discovered:
sudo apt-get -y install gpsd gpsd-clients python-gps
sudo gpsd /dev/ttyAMA0 -n -F /var/run/gpsd.sock
#At this point, you should be able to see a text-mode output from your GPS receiver by running the command “cgps -s”, something like the following.
cgps -s
#Optional step to check for version and basic function to see if it is working
