Hi Alexander, the Debian way of compiling a kernel is using make-kpkg, which is provided by the package "kernel-package". So, do `apt-get install kernel-package` and follow the instructions outlined in the README.gz file (/usr/share/kernel-package/README.gz). Hint: The Kernel-HOWTO is also useful, although some information is not applicabale to Debien. Hint2: I usually do - cd /path/to/kernel/sources (/usr/local/src/linux-2.4.10 these days) - make menuconfig - make-kpkg clean - make-kpkg --revision=<hostname>.<increasing-number> kernel_image - dpkg ../kernel-image-2.4.10_<hostname>.<increasing-number>* - reboot Beware, I use grub, so if you use lilo, then you'll have to reinstall lilo.
