Try this:
- boot system with KNOPPIX
- set up the network in KNOPPIX (netcardconfig)
- mount the debian root partition
- mount additional partitions (/usr /var ...) IF you have them (my guess is you 
have Debian just on one big partition
- chroot to the Debian root
- use apt-get/aptitude to install the linux-image, but don't forget to FIRST 
EITHER downgrade yaird OR edit /etc/yaird/Default.cfg and add
MODULE ide-generic
MODULE ide-disk
right after the "MODULE evdev" line

Hope this dows the trick

Andrei

How do I get it back?

I tried to do this from Knoppix but it doesn't seem to work. I will 
try again soon and give more details. Unless some one can point out an 
obvious reason why this wouldn't work. That would be great.


Well, thanks much.

Cheers.

in knoppix, you first have to mount all your debian partitions to 
soewhere, e.g.:

/ to /mnt/debian
/usr to /mnt/debian/usr
/home to /mnt/debian/home etc. etc.
though I exoet you did that anyway. then you'll have to (I think) bind 
/dev and /proc:

# mount --bind /dev /mnt/debian/dev
# mount --bind /proc /mnt/debian/proc
then chroot
# chroot /mnt/debian
and install the kernel with apt-get as usual.

I hope this helped.

Thomas
