Aha, I did *not* have module-init-tools installed. Thank you for that tip. So I have now installed it with 'apt-get install module-init-tools' and have re-compiled kernel 2.3.6, using the same .config as before, as follows: $ cd /usr/src/linux ((linux is a link to kernel-source-2.6.3)) $ fakeroot make-kpkg clean $ fakeroot make-kpkg --append-to-version=.20040309.raid.orca kernel_image &> roger.kernel.compile.output I inspecting my output file, roger.kernel.compile.output, and find the following related to depmod: if [ -r System.map ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map -b /usr/src/linux/ debian/tmp-image -r 2.6.3.20040309.raid.orca; fi make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.3' depmod -q -FSystem.map -b debian/tmp-image 2.6.3.20040309.raid.orca make[1]: depmod: Command not found make[1]: [real_stamp_image] Error 127 (ignored) I *worry* about the 'make[1]: depmod: Command not found'. This is different from getting lots of 'depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules ....' output but not reassuring to me. module-init-tools *is* installed this time. Dose 'depmod: Command not found' mean I am still missing something important?
