Hi all! I'm familiar with retrieving and compiling new versions of the Linux kernel under Slackware. With my switch over to Debian though I was wondering if there are different things I should keep in mind when compiling new kernel versions. I noticed that for Debian 1.1 a kernel release under devel/source??????.deb is available. This appears to contain the standard kernel release source tree but has a number of additional things (such as a nifty Tcl/Tk GUI for kernel configurations).
What is the procedure I should take to compile a kernel under debian and to take into account loadable modules, etc.? Also, if I want to get newer kernel releases is there a way to integrate it in with the additional Debian changes for /usr/src/linux? Cheers!
