Creating kernel packages with make-kpkg

[Klaus Reimer <k@ailis.de>]

Hi,

I have created some kernel packages with make-kpkg and now I want to build 
the alsa- and pcmcia-modules for these kernels. For example I have two 
different kernel packages:

  kernel-image-2.2.17-mamba
    - This is a standard kernel with no additional patches
  kernel-image-2.2.17-adder
    - This is a kernel with a lot of additional patches

I have created these two packages with

  make-kpkg --bzImage --flavour mamba --revsion 2.2.17-1 buildpackage

and

  make-kpkg --bzImage --flavour adder --revsion 2.2.17-1 buildpackage

First question: If I compile the alsa- and pcmcia-modules for the 
adder-package, are the compiled alsa- and pcmcia-modules working with the 
mamba-kernel-image, too? Or have I to compile two different alsa- and 
pcmcia-module-packages for each kernel package?

Second problem: The kernel-image does install its modules in 
/lib/modules/2.2.17. But if I compile the additional modules (alsa and 
pcmcia) with this command:

  make-kpkg --flavour mamba --revision 2.2.17-1 modules

the alsa- and pcmcia packages are installing their modules to 
/lib/modules/2.2.17-adder or /lib/modules/2.2.17-mamba. In that way I have no 
chance to create alsa- and pcmcia-packages for different kernel packages with 
the same kernel version. Is it correct that I don't need to specify the 
--flavour option when compiling the modules? And are these module packages 
compatible with all kernel 2.2.17 packages?
