I'm a little unclear what you're asking... > For example, I'm currently running 2.2.19, the kernel and related > files are located in /boot/* (vmlinuz has a link to > /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.19) and installed modules are located in > /lib/modules/2.2.19/* > > Is there a specific environment variable or command line option > to set for this, or is that the default action? ...but this is the default you get if you use make-kpkg normally. You can change the version number of the kernel using the --append-to-version option if you want to; make-kpkg --revision=1 --append-to-version=-watertown kernel-image will generate a kernel-image-$KVERS-watertown package where 'uname -r' returns $KVERS-watertown, the kernel is in /boot/vmlinuz-$KVERS-watertown, and modules are in /lib/modules/$KVERS-watertown (where $KVERS is the version of the kernel, e.g. 2.4.20). -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
