couldn't you just remove the kernel package? aphro:/home/aphro# dpkg -l | grep kernel ii device3dfx 2.3-6 Device driver for 3Dfx boards for 2.x kernel ii pciutils 2.1.2-2 Linux PCI Utilities (for 2.[123].x kernels) ii pump 0.7.3-2 Simple DHCP/BOOTP client for 2.2.x kernels
aphro:/home/aphro# dpkg -S /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.15 dpkg: /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.15 not found. i run my own kernels too but they usually have unique names for the most part: aphro:/home/aphro# ls /boot System.map-2.2.15 mbr.b vmlinuz-2.2.16+usb-UP boot.0800 os2_d.b vmlinuz-2.2.16+usb-UP+es1370 boot.b vmlinuz-2.2.14-2000071201 vmlinuz-2.2.17 chain.b vmlinuz-2.2.15 vmlinuz-2.2.17pre18+usb config-2.2.15 vmlinuz-2.2.16+usb vmlinuz-2.2.17pre18+usb+more map vmlinuz-2.2.16+usb+nosound apt-get has never(thankfully) touched my kernel(s). i run home brew kernels on every machine i build and its been the same accross all of them. dont remember doing anythign special to get apt-get to ignore it. and no i dont do it the 'debian way' as i could never figure out how that shit works so all the kernels are from ftp.kernel.org. nate Kenward Vaughan wrote: > > I decided I likely had answered my own question.
