kernel-source? You mean "linux-2.4.12.tar.gz? Or do you mean "linux-2.4.12.gz"? "linux-2.4.12.tar.gz" is in /usr/src and I tried to run "make-kpkg" there. No go. Neither "linux-2.4.12.gz" or "kernel-source-2.4.12" exist according to "find -name linux-2.4.12*" and "find -name kernel-source-2.4.12*" issued from / This despite following all of the suggested commands from this list and others to cause it to be created (e.g. "tar -xvvzf linux-2.4.12.tar.gz") from docs or man or whatever resource I found that. Somewhere folks are assuming that I am taking a step that they have not explicitly stated and thus the creation of the critical kernel-source in the necessary format in the necessary location is not happening. As always I have perused man, docs, help, articles and posts, and every other online resource I can find. All assume things not explicitly stated or use terminology I do not as-of-yet understand fully. Help? Thanks! Doc
