If that's your point, here's my understanding (since I almost never use it anyway): make install does things almost entirely automatic, like copying bzImage and so on. However, it might not really suite your distro condition and requirement. Thus, the only way to make sure it works like it means to be, is by doing everything by your own. Not so difficult actually. -- regards, Mulyadi Santosa Freelance Linux trainer and consultant blog: the-hydra.blogspot.com training: mulyaditraining.blogspot.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
