Don't just download deb files as this is insecure.

1. Set your default distribution in /etc/apt/apt.conf:
       APT::Default-Release "jessie";
2. Add a line to /etc/apt/sources.list (or a file in
   /etc/apt/sources.list.d) for the unstable suite.
3. apt-get update
4. apt-get install -t unstable linux-image-$flavour
   ($flavour is the 'flavour' of the kernel that appears in all package
   names, e.g. amd64)
