Patches applied to stock kernel to make deb kernel image
What is procedure is used to make an "official" 2.4 deb kernel image?
Such as are avialable in unstable.
What additional patches are required, if any.
Thanks, maybe with this information I can get my much simpiler custom
kernel image to find root and boot.
