I built it again, and it now produced a working kernel-image package, don't know what happened at first, maybe i was lacking disk-space or something such ? > I would try reading the ppc section in /usr/share/kernel-package/rules > > Unless I'm very much mistaken the rules for finding the right image for > an arch is written there :-) > > For instance prep: > ifneq (,$(findstring $(KPKG_SUBARCH),PReP prep)) > KPKG_SUBARCH:=prep > loader := NoLoader > kimage := zImage > target = $(kimage) > kimagesrc = $(shell if [ -d arch/$(KERNEL_ARCH)/boot/images ]; then \ > echo arch/$(KERNEL_ARCH)/boot/images/$(kimage).prep ; else \ > echo arch/$(KERNEL_ARCH)/boot/$(kimage) ; fi) > kimagedest = $(INT_IMAGE_DESTDIR)/vmlinuz-$(version) > DEBCONFIG = $(CONFDIR)/config.prep > endif Yes, thanks, that is what i was looking for. > Shouldn't be too difficult figuring out how to change that to acomodate > a flying horse, eh? ;-) I guess the standard chrp entry will do, altough quick does not work for pegasos, i think. BTW, if i were to make an official kernel package with it, should i create a whole new package or make a patch against one of the existing kernel-source packages ? The actual package is a bastard fork from one year ago or such, so i don't really know from which kernel-source package i should make a diff. When i get a modern and propper patch against linuxppc kernels, this would be another thing though. Friendly, Sven Luther
