Hi; I got it working now. The problem is I didn't read the MAKE-KPKG(1). The sequence to build a customized kernel version is `make xconfig`, `make-kpkg clean`, `make-kpkg --revision=<foo> kernel_image`.

Try #make-kpkg clean #make-kpkg -append-to-version foo kernel_image HTH Wackojacko -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
