IIRC, Kbuild-2.5 already silently accepts all of the old kbuild-2.4 commands without problems. As long as you end up running "make install" the rest of the old commands will be ignored. You can go on with all of the old commands, if you want without any trouble. This will allow you to use the same commands with kbuild-2.4 and kbuild-2.5, in case you decide to switch between both kernels and want to use the same commands. Also kbuild-2.5 does have features that allow you to call scripts from "make install", but it's not mandatory. Kieth, can you confirm that all of the old kbuild-2.4 commands have been wrapped in kbuild-2.5 commands? Thanks, Mike
