    ???
   

1. Add first we have to download a linux-image

     versn="3.0.0"
     vers="13"
     ktype="variante"
     apt-get source linux-image-$versn-$vers-$ktype
   

2. Go into the new Directory and copy your current kernel config file and configurate it.

     cd "linux-$versn"
     cp /boot/config-$(uname -r)  .config
     make menuconfig
   

3. Generate your own kernel variante and edit some files

     cp debian.master/abi/$versn-$vers/amd64/generic debian.master/abi/$versn-$vers/amd64/variante
     cp debian.master/abi/$versn-$vers/amd64/generic.modules debian.master/abi/$versn-$vers/amd64/variante.modules
     cp debian.master/control.d/vars.generic debian.master/control.d/vars.variante 
     gedit debian.master/etc/getabis 
     gedit debian.master/rules.d/amd64.mk
   

In the file gatabis is a line which start with "getall amd64 ..." add "variante" add the end of these line.

  --debian.master/etc/getabis
  getall amd64 generic server virtual ==> getall amd64 generic server virtual variante

In the file amd64.mk is a line which start with "flavours ..." add "variante" add the end of these line.

  --debian.master/rules.d/amd64.mk
  flavours	= generic server virtual ==> gflavours	= generic server virtual variante
