d-i takes your kernel packages and splits them up into a pile of udebs; see packages/kernel/linux-kernel-di-powerpc-2.6/ in the d-i repository, or the linux-kernel-di-powerpc-2.6 source package in the archive. I'm talking about what it should ship, not about what your packages should ship, so your build process is not involved. However, I do need to know if it's possible to insert modules from the -power4 set into a -g5 kernel. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
