this is not the debian way(tm) but this is what i do: (for a 2.2.19 kernel) mv /lib/modules/2.2.19 /lib/modules/2.2.19.old make kernel & install kernel reboot with new kernel make & install pcmcia stuff reboot again to be sure it all comes up .. i compile pcmcia stuff after i reboot incase it tries to detect what kernel im running and try to build with that as opposed to the kernel that i have built in /usr/src already
