Right, make-kpkg doesn't actually install the package, it just builds it. (This is useful if you want to build packages for a slower machine on a faster one, for example.) Run 'dpkg --install ../kernel-image-2.4.18_*.deb' from the kernel source tree as root. ...but then, this doesn't affect the kernel-source package; in "normal" usage, you really aren't having kernel-package generate the kernel-source package at all, since you either want to use a plain tarball from kernel.org (or a mirror) or the normal Debian package. What are you actually trying to do, what have you done so far, what issues are you running into? -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
