I tried to configure compression method to use LZMA in make menuconfig to compile a custom kernel. When I compile it I get errors regarding to compile zImage which is probably due to missing drivers for LZMA compression. I'm using Fedora 20 64 bit and have java jdk 7. How do I add patches into my kernel source to have LZMA compression?

Thanks :D

How to add LZMA compression in Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install lzma

and in Fedora:

sudo yum -y install lzma
