Could your problem be the missing "=":- make-kpkg --revision*=*1?? >From my notes for --append-to-version:- "You may use alphanumeric characters, "+" and "." (period or full stop); do not use underscore "_" or spaces, = is required" >From my dodgy memory the same rules apply to --revision Also you order the process differently, not sure if that matters, at a minimum I'd use:- make-kpkg --rootcmd fakeroot --initrd kernel_image kernel_headers I'd normally use something like:- make-kpkg --rootcmd fakeroot --initrd --revision=custom kernel_image kernel_headers Perhaps someone else can tell whether the syntax (=), and/or the order is important? <snipped> After the official Debian resources I use http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_Kernel_Newbies (which better qualifies my level of expertise!)
