Hello.
I have a tarball linux-2.6.6.tar.bz2. Can I build the
kernel-image-2.6.6-1-k7 package _exactly_ like in Debian repositories? I
don't want to download kernel-image package on my modem, but I download
updates for vanilla kernels (patches for example from 2.6.5 to 2.6.6).
Please CC me.
Basically you get the kernel-patch-debian-* package for your vanilla kernel and then you can build the exact same kernel as is in the repository.
