As explained, putting in sid before the release is not possible. However, the "problem" is already solved because it is available in experimental. You can add experimental to your apt sources: no packages from here will be installed unless you specifically request them (command line options or pinning). For example: apt-get install -t experimental linux-image-2.6.35-trunk-amd64 Note that "apt-get install linux-image-2.6.35-trunk-amd64/experimental" does not work as it needs to pull the dependencies (linux-base, ...) from experimental, too. I never search a pinning configuration for automatic updates (because I prefer manually install kernel so I know I must reboot the machine) but it should be possible.
