Hallo, yesterday I successfully compiled kernel 2.0.29 at home. Today I tried the same at work and it went wrong :( Both systems are equally configured regarding the relevant packages (dpkg 1.4.0.8, dpkg-deb 1.4.0.8, kernel-package 3.19, don't know about others).
I did: make mrproper make config make-kpkg --zimage --revision work-1.0 \ kernel_image kernel_source kernel_headers zImage and modules are compiled correctly. Then after the modules were mv'ed to tmp-image I get: ------- cp arch/i386/boot/zImage \ debian/tmp-image/boot/vmlinuz-2.0.29 cp vmlinux debian/tmp-image/boot/vmlinux-2.0.29 cp System.map debian/tmp-image/boot/System.map-2.0.29 chmod 644 debian/tmp-image/boot/vmlinuz-2.0.29 \ debian/tmp-image/boot/vmlinux-2.0.29 \ debian/tmp-image/boot/System.map-2.0.29 dpkg-gencontrol -pkernel-image-2.0.29 -Pdebian/tmp-image/ chown -R root.root debian/tmp-image dpkg --build debian/tmp-image .. dpkg-deb - error: (upstream) version (`work') doesn't contain any digits dpkg-deb: 1 errors in control file make: *** [stamp-image] Error 2 ------- I think I did what I'm told in /usr/doc/kernel-package/README. Mysteriously 'make-kpkg --zimage --revision work.1 buildpackage' runs ok. Don't know if the information is sufficient to say what could be wrong. Any idea? Thanks in advance, Ulf
