Hi ! Well, you can do it like in other rpm-based distros, but there is a much more elegant way of doing it. Install the package kernel-package (as root run "apt-get install kernel-package") and then just do:
1. cd /usr/src/linux 2. make menuconfig 3. make-kpkg kernel-image 4. dpkg -i ../kernel-image-<version-you-compiled> 5. reboot Works like a charm Diego Biurrun William Leese wrote: > > Hello all, > > i wish to build a kernel but i've read somewhere that things cant be done > quite the same way as with other (rpm-based) distros because it would confuse > apt-get. can someone fill me in on this or point me to some debian specific > documentation? > > William Leese
