Hi,

Something was changed on chapter 4.5, and now the tip to compile the 
kernel is:

-----
make KDEB_PKGVERSION=custom.1.0 deb-pkg
-----

Problem 01:
How can I disable initrd? I don't need it.

Problem 02:
The linux-kernel package was generated but when I install it with dpkg, 
the bootlooder is not configured.

Problem 03:
Is necessary use it as superuser (root)


The old way is still working great:

------
fakeroot make-kpkg --revision=custom.1.0 kernel_image
------
