    problems building kernel

    Hey Everyone,

    I am compiling the latest kernel for a project I am working on following this guide and I ran into what I hope is a simple issue.

    In the section "Installing the new kernel and modules, and updating GRUB " he stated to do...
    Code:
    $ sudo update-initramfs -c -k 2.6.34-rc7
    When I look in /lib/modules the kernel folder I just built is 2.6.35-rc1+, but when I run his command with the new kernel name it says the path cannot be found... (I added the bold)
    Code:
    jabil@jabilU1:/media/dump1/linux-2.6$ ls /lib/modules/2.6.35-rc1+/
    build              modules.builtin.bin  modules.inputmap   modules.seriomap
    kernel             modules.ccwmap       modules.isapnpmap  modules.symbols
    modules.alias      modules.dep          modules.ofmap      modules.symbols.bin
    modules.alias.bin  modules.dep.bin      modules.order      modules.usbmap
    modules.builtin    modules.ieee1394map  modules.pcimap     source
    jabil@jabilU1:/media/dump1/linux-2.6$ sudo update-initramfs -c -k 2.6.35-rcl+
    update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.35-rcl+
    Cannot find /lib/modules/2.6.35-rcl+
    update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-2.6.35-rcl+
    WTF? Does the new kernel name have an illegal character in the folder name?

    WOW!! After typing this Ijust realizes a "1" looks a lot like a "l".

    I feel like a dumb@ss.

    Sorry everyone,
