This is a great idea.

>So, we would have a source package 'linux', which would build binary

>
>Package: linux-386
>Depends: linux-image-386, linux-restricted-modules-386
>
>Package: linux-image-386
>Depends: linux-image-2.6-386
>
>Package: linux-restricted-modules-386
>Depends: linux-restricted-modules-2.6-386
>
>Package: linux-image-2.6-386
>Depends: linux-image-2.6.8.1-2-386
>
>Package: linux-restricted-modules-2.6-386
>Depends: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.8.1-2-386
