Upgrade Instructions
- --------------------

Make sure 'deb ftp://ftp.skolelinux.no/skolelinux/ woody local' is
present in your /etc/apt/sources.list and run 'apt-get update' to
update your package lists.

Find which flavour of the kernel you are running with the command
'uname -r' (examples: 386, 586tsc, 686, 686-smp, k6, k7, k7-smp).

To upgrade, run this command replacing <flavour> with yours:

  apt-get install kernel-image-2.4.27-3-<flavour>
