# pull version and arch from currently running kernel
version=`uname -r | cut -d '-' -f 1`
arch=`uname -r | cut -d '-' -f 2`

# change to source directory
cd /usr/src

# install alsa source and extract to create modules directory
apt-get install alsa-source
tar xzf alsa-drivers.tar.gz

# repeat the above for any desired kernel module packages

# install and extract kernel source
apt-get install kernel-source-$version
tar xjf kernel-source-$version.tar.bz2

# copy debian configuration of kernel from /boot to kernel source
# directory 
cd kernel-source-$version
cp /boot/config-$version-$arch .config

# build package of all installed kernel modules (ie those currently
# extracted to /usr/src/modules)
make-kpkg --append-to-version "-$arch" --us --uc modules_image
