I believe you're supposed to use --append-to-version instead. Try: make-kpkg --append-to-version -whatever clean make-kpkg --append-to-version -whatever kernel-image modules-image Without the clean you will have serious problems. I've used this instead of flavours and it seems to work properly. -- Elie Rosenblum That is not dead which can eternal lie, http://www.cosanostra.net And with strange aeons even death may die.
