Sorry about the delay, but I left the computers for a moment, and everyone wanted me to have a byte to eat. So in the order that I received the questions and responses, I have my response and/or output.

If you want, I can attatch my copy of make-kpkg, but it is 978 lines long. I want to get my system fully working eventually, so I might try the non-debian way later on, but for now I want to continue trying with the debian way. Should I see about downloading kernel-package from potato? Thanks for any help, Seneca [EMAIL PROTECTED]
