No, what I meant was that I had apt-got (past tense on purpose) installed
kernel-source*, but make-kpkg was complaining that it didn't have make rules.
So,
after reading a little more, I just got the original kernerl 2.2.14, unpacked
it and
all then worked, except for my scssi emulation module, which is probably the
only
reason I am persisting in this. Let me be more explicit: I got all unpacked,
did make
menuconfig assuring myself of having all scssi related with Y, i.e., with
*, saved
the config file. After this I made make-kpkg clean , make-kpkg --revision
kernel_image
etc, dpkg -i kernel_image, created my boot floppy ( I can't boot from hdb, in
hda I
have win 98). Now, when I booted again, the scsi modules were not there, that
is ,
they had been probably killed by mak-kpkg clean.
So, I tried again, this time I didn't do the clean stuff, I added make-kpkg
modules,
then make-kpkg --revision kernel_image, the dpkg -i the image. This time the
modules
didn't load either, but at least they were there when I run insmod sg, which
did not
happen with the cleaned image. All this makes me believe that clean takes
care of
the unresolved symbols modules, i.e., deletes them. Now, what I have is a
CDWriter HP
atapi ide and an ACER cdrom, i don't have scsi, but I need it for my burning
activities!
The positions are IRQ 14, IRQ 15 (0x3f6 and 0x376). Please throw some light
onto this.

I'm not entirely sure what your trying to say here. Are you saying that
you have compiled the kernel-source with kpkg and now are at the point
where you have something like --
kernel-image-2.0.36_custom.2.0.36.1_i386.deb ?
If so then just --
dpkg -i kernel-image-whatever your version.deb
If that isn't the case let us know.

The directions to install a kernel using make-kpkg are more or less
clear to me if doing it with a kernel*tar.gz one, because it unpacks the
make instructions. Now, what to do when it is a .deb one? I tried make
menuconfig as indicated before in an earlier thread, but there aren't
any make rules. Is there any way of unpacking them from the *_all.deb?
Please be explicit with the directions, I am starting to believe I'm
getting slow.
Thanx
Antonio.
