Hello,

I would like to install my own version of the kernel (2.6.18.3)
which i have compiled and installed. This is working fine.

But when I try to do 'emerge system', portage is
trying to emerge linux-headers also. How can I prevent
it ?

Also , when using a homebrew source, how do I install
the linux-headers in /usr/include ? just copy the directory
from the kerenl source, or symlink it ?

To prevent portage from trying to install its own version
I have added the homebrew-sources-2.6.99.ebuild to the
/usr/local/portage.

When I do 'emerge homebrew-sources' I get the following.
I am confused as to what to do next. In the homebrew-sources
ebuild, the function are just dummy (returnning true)

any pointers ?

thanks
sathish
