You could do your make (x|menu)config to select what you'd forgotten, then do: # make dep clean modules modules_install Disclaimer : this has worked for me. YMMV. If you're like me and have fallen under the spell of make-kpkg, you'd do this: make-kpkg modules Then you'd dpkg -r the resultant .deb file, paying close heed to all the warnings about installing a new same-version kernel over the old one. Again, this has worked for me. YMMV. Take care Peter. -- Peter Whysall [EMAIL PROTECTED] The TLD in my email address is sdrawkcab. Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 sid -- kernel 2.4.18
