1.) Don't both with linking to linux. Just: cd /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18 make menuconfig make-kpkg
2.) Don't use --revision to note the kernel version; make-kpkg will do that for you. Use --revision if you want to tag it to specific config options you've used. I generally do: make-kpkg --revision ofcx.y where x.y is a version of my configuration, NOT of the kernel itself. Hope this helps. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew J Perrin - http://www.unc.edu/~aperrin Assistant Professor of Sociology, U of North Carolina, Chapel Hill [EMAIL PROTECTED] * andrew_perrin (at) unc.edu On Mon, 17 Jun 2002, Francisco Fialho wrote: > Hi everybody. > > I running Debian Woody ( kernel 2.2.20) and I trying > to upgrade to kernel 2.4.18... > a did an apt-get install kernel-source-2.4.18 ) just perfect. > > the kerbel-source was saved at /usr/src...
