Ok, I rename zImage name in -bootimg package and I add multiboot item file to -bootimg package.

If I have time, I will look at meego kernel for n900. Maybe something will be possible.

1. Download source of kernel 2.6.28 (from kernel.org, or .org.tar.gz of power-kernel v64), it is not on my server
2. Unpack _source.diff.tar.gz to kernel directory (or use debian tree from my git repo)

3.a Compilation under scratchbox:
1. Run in scratchbox enviromental in kernel tree:
$ dpkg-buildpackage -b -rfakeroot

3.b Compilation using madde:
1. In kernel tree apply madde.patch
$ patch -p0 -i madde.patch
2. Run this in kernel tree:
$ mad dpkg-buildpackage -b

4. You will have builded deb packages in ../
