if you can point me at some current, no-hassle instructions for putting
a different kernel onto the installer image (on USB stick or on CD)
then i'll even try booting up the installer on the machine.

or better yet, a small USB stick version of d-i with 2.6.26 already on
it.

i used to know how to do it several years ago, but it's a complete
mystery to me these days.
