Well, I would like to distribute my packages to other people, I'm using something very near from the debian config, I just need a recent kernel (mainly for recent acpi fix). I used to think 'make-kpkg --initrd binary' would create packages with everything needed to run kernel image, build modules, etc... just like official debian packages do. But when doing this and installing generated kernel-image and kernel-headers, I can't compile without correct/create symlink in /lib/modules/2.X.Y/, and that's annoying, debian packages have not this problem. For example I had given my packages to someone who had installed them, he needed to create symlink which was not present. Is it normal ? -- Lionel Landwerlin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
