Package: rtlinux Version: 3.1pre3-2 One of the reasons for using Debian is the lack of messyness when having everything installed with packages, including kernel images.
For normal kernels, make-kpkg from kernel-package makes a terrific job at creating new kernel-image packages with friends. In a perfect world it should be possible to easily create those packages for RTLinux patched kernels too. However the README.Debian gives no help on how it could be done. Although I don't fully understand what is done when a rtlinux patch is applied to the kernel I assume it messes to much with the core internals to be enough for RTLinux to provide a /usr/src/modules/ directory, but the modules should be able to build from such a directory? Creating a simple shell script to check that kernel version and patch versions correspond would help. And after that patching the kernel to produce a tree suitable to run make-kpkg in. I'm willing to help. Please tell me how. -- /Martin
