This works as far as not overriding root's ~/bin/installkernel if it exists, but it fails to give precedence to an explicit command-line INSTALLKERNEL=... over the built-in fallbacks. I don't see an easy way to fix that without first consolidating all archs' INSTALLKERNEL handling into the top-level Makefile. Not using make install and just invoking your own install script directly works, so I'm not sure this is worth the trouble (unless you can unify all archs' INSTALLKERNEL handling as a side-effect / cleanup). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
