I have a Sun IPX box in which I installed debian stable

testing (sarge) int hat box. So, I edited /etc/apt/sources.list,
changing stable to testing, then did apt-get update and then chose to
update dselect and dpkg before doing the upgrade:
AFAIK, you must upgrade to a specific kernel version to use the newer glibc
version.
Which kernel should I pick then? My current kernel is 2.2.20
(whatever came with when I installed stable/woody):
katrina:/home/raub# uname -a
Linux katrina 2.2.20 #1 Fri Nov 16 15:48:02 EST 2001 sparc unknown
katrina:/home/raub#
These are the options testing gives me:

I tried to upgrade to katrina:/home/raub# apt-get install
kernel-image-2.6.8-1-sparc32, and that is when it started barking
about libc. Should I have tried one of the 2.4 kernels instead?
