As far as I can tell, the latest testing kernel image for Pentium is:
   kernel-image-2.4.27-1-586tsc_2.4.27-6_i386.deb (11.5M)
What commands do I need to issue in order to generate a .deb that is
_identical_ to that?  I assume I have to use make-kpkg, and it probably
depends on the precise version of the compiler.

I assume that works; I don't bother making a .deb package and just
compile it the non-Debian way.
 

Thanks Benjamin, I've just had a look at that.  Maybe an incantation 
based on that
will do the trick.  It'll take a few hours to find out, and I'm not too 
hopeful.  I've
tried it the non-debian way as well, and using sources from all over.  
If anyone
else has any more hints, please sing out.
