That looks fine, although I would use http:// instead (as in
http://ftp.nl....) since it is faster in general.

Hmm. Well I should have said linux-image-2.6-amd-k8-smp anyhow.
I just looked and found this on the site:
http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/linux-2.6/linux-image-2.6-amd64-k8-smp_2.6.15-8_amd64.deb
So the site does have a pakcage named linux-image-2.6-amd64-k8-smp for
at least 2.6.15.
Looking at the Packages.gz for amd64 in etch on the server, it says the
version it should be using is 2.6.15-8, which is the package above.
So it should be working.
Make sure you did apt-get update recently.
