Re: modules on kernels with flavor

[Germano Leichsenring <germano@jedi.cs.kobe-u.ac.jp>]

Well, actually what I did was this:
- install kernel-source-2.2.14-14 and pcmcia-source-3.1.8-9
- make config
- make-kpkg --flavour sound kernel_image modules_image

At this point, I had the debs on /usr/src.
Install the debs, edit lilo, run lilo, reboot...

Then I had problems.

Well, it is documented that you have to recompile them, but I
couldn't recompile with make-kpkg, could you?
