I would recommend doing it the debian way. Read the documentation at the site - http://www.debian.org/doc/FAQ/ch-kernel.html Install kernel-package and then read the documentation in - $ zless /usr/doc/kernel-package/README.gz Once you unpack and cd to the kernel source it is almost as simple as - make menuconfig make-kpkg clean make-kpkg --revision=custom.1.0 kernel_image dpkg -i new_kernel.deb fix lilo and reboot See the documentation for a more thorough explanation. I left a couple things out. kent -- From seeing and seeing the seeing has become so exhausted First line of "The Panther" - R. M. Rilke
