As was pointed out, this's a bad idea, but for reference: > How can I use make-kpkg without wiping the .config file with the low > latency stuff in it? make-kpkg --targets should tell you. I think it's 'make-kpkg config' or something of the sort, then do whatever to your .config. When you run make-kpkg kernel_image, it knows the .config has already been parsed, so it doesn't need to do anything. As a usage example, if I'm upgrading kernels and adding patches, I usually do make-kpkg config (or whatever it is) to run oldconfig, so I can see what new options have appeared, and get the patches installed. Then I can use make menuconfig to actually change any configuration options I need to, and then make-kpkg kernel_image to build it. Don't forget, any revision flags you use '--revision x' for example have to go with the first make-kpkg invocation, since it builds the debian directory early on in the process.
