Subject: Re: Linux 2.6.30-rc6

Strange version numbering....   x86-64/Fedora 10/2.6.30-rc6 with no 
local modifications or 'localversion' file, built straight from git:

$ make -s oldconfig && make -sj17
$ sudo make modules_install && sudo make install
...
   INSTALL /lib/firmware/edgeport/down2.fw
   INSTALL /lib/firmware/whiteheat_loader.fw
   INSTALL /lib/firmware/whiteheat.fw
   DEPMOD  2.6.30-rc6-00000-rc6
sh /spare/repo/linux-2.6/arch/x86/boot/install.sh 2.6.30-rc6-00000-rc6 
arch/x86/boot/bzImage \
		System.map "/boot"

"2.6.30-rc6-00000-rc6" seems like something is broken, as building a 
released version from git always gave me a proper "2.6.30-rc5"-style 
version, as expected.

Attached .config.
