make-kpkg clean make-kpkg --revision=custom.1 ....... make [x|menu]config make-kpkg clean make-kpkg --revision=custom.2 ....... But then you will have problems in /lib/modules since they both install a 2.2.12 directory. There is also the flavour option, the man for make-kpkg says you need a patched kernel but I think the 2.2.x series of kernels does not require it. make-kpkg clean make-kpkg --revision=custom.1 --flavour=-allmod ....... make [x|menu]config make-kpkg clean make-kpkg --revision=custom.2 --flavour=-nomod ....... Then the modules will be put in /lib/modules/2.2.12-allmod and 2.2.12-nomod respectively and the kernel will know which dir to look in. Note that the - is necessary in the flavour field or else you will get 2.2.12allmod. -- Brian Servis ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mechanical Engineering | Never criticize anybody until you Purdue University | have walked a mile in their shoes, [EMAIL PROTECTED] | because by that time you will be a http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/~servis | mile away and have their shoes.
