I have trouble installing compiled kernels on my system. I have a PC164. I loaded Woody 3.0 from CD, then upgraded to revision 1 over the net. I downloaded kernel 2.2.22 and it was automatically installed successfully. Rather than reconfigure the kernel, I decided to do a test compilation with the config file in /boot, so I would not screw things up with an unacceptible configuration. I used make kpkg-clean, then fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --revision=custom.1.0 kernel_image to make a .deb file. When I tried dpkg -i *.deb, the installation bombed off with the message: error processing kernel-image... (--install): trying to overwrite '/boot/config-2.2.22', which is also in package kernel-image-2.2.22-generic. dpkg-deb_subprocess paste killed by signal (broken pipe). My linuxinfo is as follows:
Linux nh 2.2.22 #1 Sat Oct 26 18:09:21 EST 2002 One Alpha EV56 366.30MHz processor, 363.85 total bogomips, 128M RAM System library 2.2.5 Any suggestions as to why dpkg -i bombed off?
