        That last should not be required if you had added --initrd to
 the make-kpkg line.

        Here is my compile command:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#!/bin/sh

export MODULE_LOC=/usr/local/src/kernel/modules

#make-kpkg --rootcmd=fakeroot --initrd --append-to-version=-oscar clean
make-kpkg --rootcmd=fakeroot --initrd --append-to-version=-oscar kernel_image
fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd  --append-to-version=-oscar modules_image
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

        (Yes, this is my 15th test compile for 2.6.27)
