Michael Schmitz dixit:
Sorry, that one's unparseable on any Linux system I have access to.
When did Debian switch to xz as compressor in archives?
Support for it was in squeeze, and first packages begun to
use it shortly afterwards, so for years. I think I even saw
it being used before squeeze, for leaf packages such as -dbg
ones or those with huge data.
On the other hand, to actually *boot* a system successfully
with this kernel you need an initrd, which requires a system
up to date as of roughly end of 2012, anyway (due to the
initramfs-tools package and the versions of the packages
that are actually needed to be put *on* the initrd, and due
to the initrd being expected to be xz IIRC). So I'm afraid
you need to boot into at least Linux 3.2 first - images are
at http://snapshot.debian.org/package/linux/3.2.35-2/ and
also require xz to unpack already, but that can be done on
any Unix box (even BSD) using ar and tar; those are mostly
monolithic and don't require an initrd to boot - then to
dist-upgrade your system to latest unstable, at which point
you can apt-get install the 3.10 kernel.
