why downloading from the kernel.org is wrong and what kind of patches do i 
need? Later I need to install rtai and comedi onto my system, I am trying to 
write a device driver for a ISA interface IO card.
--------------
>>  --initrd
I tried to use make-kpkg without --initrd, it gives me same error. I will 
try it with --initrd, let's see will it work.
