Re: Woody now sound + kernel

Hi Folks,

Upgraded to Woody from potato using a mixture of Apt-Get, upgrade and -f install and dselect everything seems to be working fine except a few problems with unpacking. Now how do I upgrade the kernel? Is there a nice easy way?

apt-get install make-kpkg

Then you cd into /usr/src/ , bunzip2 and untar the source, make config (or menuconfig or xconfig). Here comes the magic :)

make-kpkg --revision=<your version> kernel-image

Bear in mind that I don't use modules, and you'll need to read the manpage should you ant to incorporate any Debian-provided patches. then it is a simple matter of using dpkg to install the deb thats remained in /usr/src

Cheers,
Rob
