debian installer with kernel 2.6.18

[Marco Herrn <marco@mherrn.de>]

Hi there,

since I have a mainboard with VIA VT8251 chipset, I need an installer that
supports that chipset. It is contained in kernel 2.6.18, which is also
available as a debian package since today. 

No I tried to build my own installer with that kernel, as in
http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/svn/debian-installer/installer/doc/custom-kernel.txt.
However I fail doing that.

I have changed the content of kernel-versions to

   # arch  abi       flavour        installedname           suffix   # build-depends
   amd64   2.6.18-2  amd64-generic  2.6.18-1-xen-amd64  - linux-image-2.6.18-1-xen-amd64

I also changed every occurrence of linux-image-2.6.16-2-amd64-generic to
linux-image-2.6.18-1-xen-amd64. 

But when I build the package, it fails:


marco@lurkabove:/tmp/k/linux-kernel-di-amd64-2.6$ dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot

Any ideas what is going wrong here? Do I use the wrong source package? 

Regards
Marco
