hello,
in the new last days I've been trying to compile a recent kernel from
kernel.org
I fetched a kernel from http://www.kernel.org/
mainline: 2.6.32-rc5 2009-10-16 [Full Source]
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/testing/linux-2.6.32-rc5.tar.bz2
unpacked it using tar xjvf linux-2.6.32-rc5.tar.bz2 -C /usr/src
linked : ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.32-rc5.tar.bz2 /usr/src/linux
cp /boot/config-`uname -r` /usr/src/linux/.config
make oldconfig
then I started building the packages with
make-kpkg buildpackage --revision 20091016 --initrd
it started compiling it and it ended after a loinger time with :
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.32-rc5'

linux-xenu-2.6.32-rc5_2.6.32-rc5-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb
ok, so far - it looked good even thouigh that "xenu" part annoyed me
somehow.
when I treid to install linux-xenu-2.6.32-rc5_20091016_amd64.deb
I got:
pegasos:/usr/src# dpkg -i linux-xenu-2.6.32-rc5_20091016_amd64.deb
Selecting previously deselected package linux-xenu-2.6.32-rc5.

Done.
Setting up linux-xenu-2.6.32-rc5 (20091016) ...
Internal Error: Could not find image (/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-rc5)
dpkg: error processing linux-xenu-2.6.32-rc5 (--install):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
linux-xenu-2.6.32-rc5
Obviously something is badly wrong then.
I am using Debian Unstable with kernel 2.6.31 (Linux pegasos
2.6.31-trunk-amd64 #1 SMP Mon Oct 12 23:36:11 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux)
and Grub2
anyone has an idea whats wrong here? Or am I doing it completely wrong?
Thx for reading at least...
