Debian kernels, the Debian way -- why is this not documented somewhere? Maybe I should put this in my task laptop package?
install the following packages: kernel-source-<version> (comments on this below) pcmcia-source kernel-package bin86 (for x86 laptops) # at the command line cd /usr/src tar zxvf kernel-source-<version>.tar.gz ln -s kernel-source-<version> linux tar zxvf pcmcia-cs.tar.gz cd linux make menuconfig # or xconfig, or just plain config make-kpkg --revision=`uname -n`.1 kernel_image make-kpkg modules_image cd .. dpkg --install kernel-image-<version>.deb dpkg --install pcmcia-modules-<version>.deb reboot
