If so, what would the procedure be? yes kernel-package works fine with 2.4.0. you use it the same way as 2.2. the only (minor) problem is when you remove a make-kpkg kernel image /lib/modules/`uname -r` is not totally removed since the generated .deb does not know about some of the extra .dep files created there. this is with potato's make-kpkg, this might be fixed in later versions. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
