When you install the kernel, the following page (https://www.debian.org/releases/jessie/i386/ch08s06.html.en) says you must run the following command:

pkg -i ../linux-image-3.16-subarchitecture_1.0.custom_i386.deb.

​Do I need to run mrproper beforehand?

I can't see any linux-image file in the /usr/src/4.14.15 directory:

Where would the default location of such a file be if were created using the make-kpkg command?

Cheers

​PS since I can't seem to find the linux-image file for the new kernel to run dpkg -i on

should I have run the ​

 fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --revision=1.0.custom kernel_imag

​e

ie fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --revision=4.14.15.krankenhaus kernel_imag

​e

​command instead of just make-kpkg to create it?

Cheers
