Okay, it is unclear, if you don't want to build your own kernel. The prebuilt DEB file in the package directory( (split Zip file).

Package: (split Zip file)
Prebuilt Linux kernel and modules by a DEB file, it is easy to install.

I add a line to split it.

Hi Mopplayer, thanks for all your great work. I want to agree with abs91199. Lots of us users know how to sudo apt-get update, but installing a deb package is beyond us. It would be great if the readme includes all code, step by step, with exact syntax, that is required for installation.

For example, it is unclear if we should follow all the steps in the readme, or if we should just git clone and then dpkg -i the /.deb file. Where is the .deb file anyway? Do we need to build it out of the .zip files?

Thanks! Mopplayer, could you please include this in your readme so that future users can find out how to do it?

Hi, the lattepanda-64-mainline_4.11.0-rc8-l_amd64.deb is a prebuilt Debian package.
You don't need to do any steps but just install it by dpkg.
It will perform all steps.
And then reboot your computer to take effect.

How do you merge multiple zip files into a deb file? Do I extract them first and then merge them, or is there a Linux command to merge several zip into a deb?

@riazarbi
AFAIK there is not a command to unzip splitted files, what I did is
cat someFileName.z* > merged.zip what you are doing here is concatenating all files in a directory with the same name and with extention starting with 'z' into one single file
then unzip the merged file with unzip command

OK, I use WINRAR to split and merge ZIP files under Windows.
alete89's method will include and update in README after my testing.
Because it seems that package had lack of update-initramfs command by using this method.
