Why? kernel-source-2.6.7 (2.6.7-3) is in testing. Along with kernel-package, you should have no problem creating a debian package from that source, which is easy to install. Just unpack the source in /usr/src, create a link from it to /usr/src/linux, configure the kernel with your favorite tool (I find that 'make menuconfig' works well). And just type 'make-kpkg kernel-image' to get a debian package, which you can install with 'dpkg -i kernel-image-...'. > and now I'm having some problem with booting in to my new kernel. > modprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modukes/2.6.7/modules.dep: No such > file or directory Are you sure it doesn't say /lib/modules/..etc..? Looks to me like the modules weren't installed properly. Using the make-kpkg method should do this automatically. > umount: devfs: not mounted Are you used to using devfs? If you are using Kernel 2.6.7 you should definetely be using hotplug+udev instead. > pivot_root: No such file or directory > /sbin/init: 424: connot open dev/console: No such file > Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init! Looks like this is cause by the system not finding the right devices in /dev. If you are using udev, you need at least /dev/null and /dev/console to exist before udev is mounted.
