Oops! Sorry, that should have been `debian/rules binary-modules' not build-modules. [ Who was the genius that decided to name the makefile targets "binary" and "build?" I constantly substitute one for the other when working on my packages. ] If you use `debian/rules binary-modules' then you will get a deb file that you can install with dpkg. It's a little better than simply copying the files, since you will be using Debian's packaging system to track these files. > some other things happend which i don't understand till now: > e.g. the: > > select option 1 -- "Read from the currently running kernel." > says that APM and PCI is disabled - what is a discrepancy to my .config > file from the kernel source - so i don't know where my currently running > kernel is really from! This is clearly the source of the problem. Somehow the kernel that you are using was created with a different configuration than the one in your .config file. Fortunately, this problem seems to be resolved. Brian -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
