Following Bug 455909 (linux kernel cannot be autobuilt because
kernel-package needs updating to work on armel) I've compiled
linux-2.6.23-2 for armel using a patched kernel-package and am
uploading the binary packages to
http://freaknet.org/martin/debian/armel/linux-image
However, when I dpkg -i the iop32x one on a Thecus N2100, it first warns:
Setting up linux-image-2.6.23-1-iop32x (2.6.23-2) ...
Hmm. The package shipped with a symbolic link
/lib/modules/2.6.23-1-iop32x/source
However, I can not read the target: No such file or directory
Therefore, I am deleting /lib/modules/2.6.23-1-iop32x/source
(is this normal?) and then fails saying:
Using mkinitramfs-kpkg to build the ramdisk.
Running postinst hook script flash-kernel.
The ramdisk doesn't fit in flash.
User postinst hook script [flash-kernel] exited with value 1
dpkg: error processing linux-image-2.6.23-1-iop32x (--install):
where file sizes are:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3973841 Dec 28 11:42 /boot/initrd.img-2.6.22-3-iop32x
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4265387 Jan 7 17:08 /boot/initrd.img-2.6.23-1-iop32x
and, unpacking them, the difference is lib/modules, which is 868K
larger in 23-1 than in 22-3
Does anyone know how I work around this or what I'm doing wrong?
Cheers
M
