Thanks ! Looks good. I have to add the part about "make config" to my
guide. I'm writing it as I proceed with my own kernel compile. My aim is
to make a guide that is accessible to Linux newbies while allowing them
access to the full advantages of building a custom kernel.

"apt-get" downloads files from repositories. "apt-cache search" looks
through your downloaded package lists to find matches to your search

Hi all,
Whenever I have compiled a kernel - twice so far on Debian, many times
on Slackware - I've struck this issue.
There are several features of a kernel that are expected to be

Hi,
The easies (though perhaps not most elegant) way to prevent this in
the future is to move your modules directory befor the make
modules_install, tar up the modules directory from the build then move
your old modules back.
Your probably going to need to either use the kernel you build or if

I don't know why this is happening b/c everything was working fine
before I started compiling kernels.
I don't know if 'make modules_install' is the cause for this but I guess
it is.
(I don't have a lot of experience in compiling kernels)
Can anybody tell what causes this and how I can avoid this in the
future?
TIA

This is some crap with the timestamps and limitiations of depmod, I think.
Run depmod -a as root to fix. Or just ignore it.
