Kernel 2.6 on Woody

[Davor Balder <dbalder@ozemail.com.au>]

Hi all, 

Is there an easy way to compile kernel 2.6 on Woody?

There are reports that there are issues with modules etc. 

Has anybody done this? What steps should I take?


I have source for 2.6-test5.

When I compile it, I get this (last few lines):

                 ARCH=i386 modules_install
		 make[2]: Entering directory
		 `/usr/src/linux-2.6.0-test5'
		 scripts/Makefile.modinst:16: *** Uh-oh, you have stale
		 module entries. You messed with SUBDIRS, do not
		 complain if something goes wrong.
		 if [ -r System.map ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F
		 System.map -b
		 /usr/src/linux-2.6.0-test5/debian/tmp-image -r
		 2.6.0-test5; fi
		 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.0-test5'
		 if [ -x debian/post-install ]; then
		 \
		         IMAGE_TOP=debian/tmp-image version=2.6.0-test5
			 debian/post-install;\
			 fi
			 cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage
			 debian/tmp-image/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.0-test5
			 cp: cannot stat `arch/i386/boot/bzImage': No
			 such file or directory
			 make[1]: *** [real_stamp_image] Error 1
			 make[1]: Leaving directory
			 `/usr/src/linux-2.6.0-test5'


Is there a backport for module-init-tools for Woody (version 0.99)?


Or am I missing something else?


Take care, 


TIA
