Hi,
Looks like using /usr/src/linux is fine but linking /usr/include/linux
and /usr/include/asm to real kernel was the problem.

Hi,
Did you read make-kpkg documentation especially by Kent West?
I think instead of reinventing wheel, suppliment existing good document
as patch bug report.
/usr/share/doc/make-kpkg/README.gz (last section is by Kent)
For this, use unstable version.
Also my Debian Reference has a (good) sum

I'm not sure that is what you want to do; what you want is your kernel source
in a folder that clearly identifies it

I did not follow it to the letter, but I did manage to rebuild the kernel
first time with no problems.

When I followed the directions, everything worked fine. Easy as pie.

While you _can_ certainly use the LDP HOWTO instructions for building a
new kernel (and I may sure most debian users including myself have done
so), using the debian kernel package's make-kpkg should be strongly
encouraged.
An additional 'nice' feature of the process is that after you run the

stupid not to use the tools available (ie ke
