Package: kernel-package Version: 8.124
When i attempt to make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-server kernel_image it works great. I get the package built no problem, but when i attempt to isntall it, it gives the following error:
Setting up kernel-image-2.6.8-server (10.00.Custom) ... /usr/sbin/mkinitrd: add_modules_dep_2_5: modprobe failed FATAL: Module sym53c8xx not found. FATAL: Module sd_mod not found. Failed to create initrd image. dpkg: error processing kernel-image-2.6.8-server (--install): subprocess ... ... ...
The thing is that i've compiled scsi disk support and the sym53c8xx module into the kernel, because otherwise i get errors and warnings all the time, besides it taking longer to boot up. The thing is that i've been able to run the new kernel fine, so it seems like it's a useless warning, though now i get other errors like it attempting to load these modules again. This happens (i think) because it detects my scsi pci card and attempts to add the module support so i can actually load up the kernel. I'm using a scsi drive as root so i like have it built in. This is a minor error, but a discouraging one none the less. I've also seen posts (doing a google search) but none seem to be resolved. I hope you guys can get around to fixing this, since it hasn't happened to be in gentoo and other distros.
I am using Debian GNU/Linux Sarge (installed by rc2 netinst), kernel 2.6.8-1-386. I also have the bin86 package which is recommended by kernel-package.
