a good choice for the power user, who typicaly wants to re-compile Linux
perself, apply per's own set of patches, etc. However, I feel that an option
for newbie users to "install & forget" just like we do for every Debian
package is missing for what the Linux kernel is concerned.

I don't understand. How is your solution better than
*prompt* apt-get install kernel-image-2.4-386?

I also object this ITP.
