I'm not at all clear what this previous command does. the normal set

of build instructions at this point is very simple
make && make modules_install
Even if that isn't the 'Debian' way, is it possible to build and

install a kernel as the kernel designers intended it or does that not

work on Debian?
Maybe there's another Debian user here who can help you. I'm Gentoo

based and it's pretty straight forward here.
