Right but it defeats the purpose of using a script to do this... ;)

The problems I encountered were with a module for a 64 bit Compaq SCSI 
controller erroring out.  So, I just disabled(deselected) this module in 
make menuconfig.  I also had a issue with a module for a Zoran based 
video card, again I just disabled it.  The process of "Knoppifing" is 
about I described it(did I miss anything, anyone?)...  Cloop is the most 
important module, while the package errors out in making a deb, you can 
still compile it by hand.  knx-alsa should compile without issue.  I'll 
write up more on the process when I have a few hours to spare...
