Hi Dennis,

I am trying to build a kernel from git://gitorious.org/efikamx/linux-kernel.git. The "newer" might have been misleading; the main reason I am doing this is because I am working with systemtap that needs some addition build kernel tree and debuginfo to build instrumentation modules, like what is described in http://omappedia.org/wiki/Systemtap .

If was possible to make this an rpm like the omap one mentioned in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/Fedora_ARM_Kernels, that would be great.
