Thanks, Gilbert. I updated the page again today to fix some typos
and to add some stuff which I forgot. Let me know how it goes.
My goal is to make it a thorough and comprehensive tutorial for
building custom kernels in Debian and for integrating custom kernels
with the regular maintenance and upkeep of a Debian system.
I also want to mention as many of the common "gotchas" as possible,
and show how to avoid them. Unfortunately, those goals appear
to conflict with brevity. ;-)
Although the traditional make-kpkg way is the main focus, I desire
to include enough information on the newer "make deb-pkg" way to
make the page useful to "make deb-pkg" users too. It is covered
in the "Alternatives" section and is mentioned here and there
throughout the document.
