Building a Custom Kernel Fails in Submodule

[Seed]

I am attempting to build a custom kernel for proxmox using this guide: https://github.com/proxmox/pve-kernel

But with this repo:

https://git.proxmox.com/git/pve-kernel.git

But when executing:

make build-dir-fresh

I get:

Cloning into '/root/pve-kernel/submodules/ubuntu-kernel'...
fatal: remote error: upload-pack: not our ref 148c038ca663f09720ebdaa77e5c63d0e8da4573
fatal: Fetched in submodule path 'submodules/ubuntu-kernel', but it did not contain 148c038ca663f09720ebdaa77e5c63d0e8da4573. Direct fetching of that commit failed.

Hi,
thank you for the report, the git://git.proxmox.com/git/mirror_ubuntu-kernels was slightly behind, so it didn't yet contain the newest required tag. The issue should be fixed now thanks to @fabian!

Thank you! Will give it a go.

What distro can I use to build kernels? Right now I'm using proxmox itself, latest, which looks to be working well, but I assume you build on a debian distro. Can you share what version if so? Debian 13.5?

Found the dev pages so will follow that. Thanks again for the fix.
