I am routinely building with CONFIG_LOCALVERSION=3D"-testing" CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO=3Dy My usual sequence of "make ; sudo make modules_install install" has worked fine for all of 2.6.23{-rc?{,-mm?},}. For 2.6.23-mm1 it fails with: ts@xenon:~/kernel/linux-2.6.23-mm1-work> sudo make modules_install instal= l root's password: INSTALL arch/i386/crypto/aes-i586.ko [...] INSTALL sound/usb/usx2y/snd-usb-usx2y.ko if [ -r System.map -a -x /sbin/depmod ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.= map 2.6.23-mm1; fi sh /home/ts/kernel/linux-2.6.23-mm1-work/arch/i386/boot/install.sh 2.6.23= -mm1 arch/i386/boot/bzImage System.map "/boot" Root device: /dev/system/root (mounted on / as ext3) Module list: processor thermal ahci pata_marvell aic7xxx fan jbd ext3 = dm_mod edd dm-mod dm-snapshot (xennet xenblk dm-mod dm-snapshot) Kernel image: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.23-mm1 Initrd image: /boot/initrd-2.6.23-mm1 No modules found for kernel 2.6.23-mm1-testing ts@xenon:~/kernel/linux-2.6.23-mm1-work> That is, both "make modules_install" and "make install" omit the "-testing" suffix, "make modules_install" installing the modules into /lib/modules/2.6.23-mm1 instead of /lib/modules/2.6.23-mm1-testing, and "make install" passing "2.6.23-mm1" without the "-testing" suffix to the install.sh script, but mkinitrd suddenly rediscovers the real kernel version string and consequently looks for modules in /lib/modules/2.6.23-mm1-testing, so initrd creation fails.
