I never ever used make-kpkg as making the kernel and installing it I found quite easy [following instructions and stuff] -- it's not specific to Debian. But a few times I wanted to just add packages so all I did was cd [current linux kernel dicrecory - usually /usr/src/linux] make menuconfig make dep make modules make install_modules update-modules then it worked. Heck, that's the way NVidia adds stuff to kernel :) - Adam
