This sounds interesting. How would this be integrated into Debian without
messing around with the Kernel makefiles? I'm assuming that we want to
leave the kernel source in a vanilla state. Does Debian use a vanilla
version of the kernel sources or does it modify them some way, besides
standard patches?
What would be really nice is a Debianized kernel
configuration/build/install front end to make it easier for newbies to
configure the kernel and install modules. ...wishful thinking, I know.
