Yes and no. There are some programs that depend on actual kernel headers. I agree with Joey, kernel 2.2 should not go as the default kernel in Debian 2.1, but it may be possible to have a package with it and the loads of modules (I'm guessing here, but I think 2.2 will have 2-4 times more modules as 2.0). It may be also nice to have a kernel-image-smp. I remember reading an article on one of those crappy ZD magazines about how odd it seemed to have to download a kernel from the net and compile it to have SMP support under linux and on the other hand Windows NT supported it right out of the box -- yeah, right, and Erwin will be running on SunOS next week.
