The kernel-package readme file explains how to prevent that, near the end of a lengthy discussion under Versions and revisions: So, try using an epoch for your custom packages: $Get_Root make-kpkg --revision=3:custom.1.0 kernel_image (Get_Root is whatever you need to become root -- fakeroot or sudo are examples that come to mind). The trick is that 3:custom.whatever will always be higher than any debian-provided kernel package, so apt and dselect won't try to upgrade it for you.

Instead of traditionnal compilation, use 'make-kpkg', which will build a package from your new kernel; install this package, dselect should not complain any more. that's what i am doing ... :( and it complains that even the reason why it complains, on another system i installed the kernel in traditional way, thus dpkg doesn't even is aware of it and doesn't complain... -- ciao bboett == [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://inforezo.u-strasbg.fr/~bboett http://erm1.u-strasbg.fr/~bboett === the total amount of intelligence on earth is constant. human population is growing

BTW: using traditional compilation will mean no debian kernel image will be installed, I dont see how dselect could then replace something thats not installed?? -Lex pgpOYHxaZet5l.pgp Description: PGP signature

Have you read the recent thread titled make-kpkg and apt-get updates? It deals with this exact issue. The kernel-image-2.2.12 package on the Debian mirrors is currently version 2.2.12-3 (no epoch). If the version of the kernel package you compiled is less than this, apt-get will want to replace it because this one looks newer. What did you use for the --revision parameter to make-kpkg? - -- finger for PGP public key. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: 2.6.3ia Charset: noconv iQCVAwUBN/p8Or7M/9WKZLW5AQEvIAP/UVtwdpbXGFOutZtxpzFA8sq5n2nHA4iD dE8AQPVrTqArVxPwlWNNtd3s89TmyL9nMg21YJjhCzvtnBkUHPbSSsNh2UbytxAF aYPpTERaUGGNFST4HS0Ff/iwdEk5zwaObx6z6Mt68w/tIrTtzXBv/IGOvxjHOogv 7EyZ3/nfypg= =2+rK -END PGP SIGNATURE-
