That looks fine, although I would use http:// instead (as in http://ftp.nl....) since it is faster in general. > (the equivalent deb-src are commented) > > command > > #apt-get install linux-image-2.6-amd64-k8 Hmm. Well I should have said linux-image-2.6-amd-k8-smp anyhow. I just looked and found this on the site: http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/linux-2.6/linux-image-2.6-amd64-k8-smp_2.6.15-8_amd64.deb So the site does have a pakcage named linux-image-2.6-amd64-k8-smp for at least 2.6.15. Looking at the Packages.gz for amd64 in etch on the server, it says the version it should be using is 2.6.15-8, which is the package above. So it should be working. Make sure you did apt-get update recently. Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
