Hi Grant,
I have a number of questions concerning your most recent feedback:
1. I tried typing apt-cache search kernel-image-2.4.20 at the prompt, but I
got no output.  What do I have to do before that?
2. I assume that, since my machine is old - i.e. a 715/100 - that I would
need to use either kernel-image-2.4.20-32 or kernel-image-2.4.20-32-smp. Am
I correct? If so, what is the difference between these two?
3. Could you point me to a detailed set of instructions for downloading and
installing the chosen kernel?
Thanks,
Jaime
