Hi, the subject may be misleading, but I do not kow how to express the problem in a single line: I want to build a Debian package with a kernel image for a specific hardware (it is not intended to be uploaded to the official Debian archive). The image shall be copied with dd to a partition on a CF card, the partition does not contain a file system. Space is a crucial ressource on that hardware, so the image file should not stay on the file system (which is on another partition of the same CF card). What is the best approach to do this? The file has to be part of the package, but should be deleted just after the dd. My idea is to package it as /tmp/zImage ( /tmp/ is on a ram disk, and there should be enough space). Is there a better way? Are there problems to be expected by putting it on /tmp, and deleting it just after the install in postinst? Greetings, Oliver
