OK. Got there and ran the "make-kpkg" command. A couple of complaints flashed by along with tons of other text, then after defaulting to "Y" CONFIG_MODULES and CONFIG_MODVERSIONS: "Kernel module loader (CONFIG_KMOD) [N/y/?] (NEW)" If I choose "Y" does this require me to load specific modules for everything or does it merely make such more automated? I did a search on the Internet but what I need to know is unclear ... sure wish Linux would document such options alongside the request for a choice! The default is "N". Thanks! Doc
