Bug#257469: kernel-source-2.6.7: Unable to build kernel_image
Package: kernel-source-2.6.7
Version: 2.6.7-2
Severity: important
Justification: fails to build from source
Attempting to build a slightly customized 2.6.7 kernel with built in support
for IDE, as well as necessary hardware for booting.
When doing a 'make-kpkg kernel_image modules_image', the compilation goes fine,
but module installation fails. Attached is a snippet from the end of the build
process. The first (really long) line is repeated for every module built, and
is clearly malformed.
*** build_error
