kernel installation
I have successfully compiled a kernel using the make-kpkg package and
following
the instructions provided in /usr/share/kernel-package/README* -- many
thanks,
Manoj ! -- :
make xconfig
make-kpkg clean
make-kpkg --revision lt28.2 kernel_image
make-kpkg --revision lt28.2 modules_image
at installation, I get
lt28:/usr/src# dpkg -i kernel-image-2.2.18pre21_lt28.2_i386.deb
dpkg - warning: downgrading kernel-image-2.2.18pre21 from pre21-1 to

Notice that a previous kernel (built with --revision pre21-1) installed
perfectly.
Any idea how to fix the problem ?
