Source: debian-reference
Severity: normal
The section regarding compiling the kernel source references
linux kernel version 2.6 but stable is now 3.2.46+ and testing
is 3.9.8-1. Also, the "deb-pkg" target is recommended but
the section about using 'make-kpkg' which used to be included and worked
well for many years was deleted
Please consider adding a link to the excellent document
'Creating a Custom Linux Kernel in Debian GNU/Linux'
(http://users.wowway.com/~zlinuxman/Kernel.htm)
to the 'further information' section. That guide
is very comprehensive, documents both the 'deb-pkg'
and 'make-kpkg' methods, and is updated on a regular
basis (last update 7/28/13)
