I'm guessing that you looked for it in /usr/src/linux, and didn't find it. If you haven't already, look in the /usr/src directory. This is where the .deb appears on my box using make-kpkg. >where do i define this option,i tried it on the command line ( make-kpkg >--targets=kernel_image ) but this hasn't worked,also,another >question,what's the difference between a zImage kernel and a bzImage one >??? Answering the second question, bzImage allows for a larget kernel image to be used. zImage is limited to 512 KB, or something like that. Other than that, no difference.
