You can also simply download the official kernel sources from a kernel.org mirror, that's generally what I do. However, I would recommend you get used to building kernels with the kernel-package package. With that, you build a kernel and package that into a .deb which can then be installed with dpkg -i kernel-image-blabla.deb It takes just a little getting used to, but then it's great. So, apt-get install kernel-package gcc debianutils make libncurses5-dev should take care of the most important things. After that, read /usr/share/doc/kernel-package/README Paul Slootman -- home: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.wurtel.demon.nl/ work: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.murphy.nl/ debian: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.debian.org/ isdn4linux: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.isdn4linux.org/
