Okay, I'm in the process of submitting a bug and I realized I do not
actually have kernel-image-2.2.17-pmac installed. I have whatever kernel
is installed by the boot floppies. Does this mean I should

1. Submit the bug against kernel-image-2.2.17-pmac?
2. First install kernel-image-2.2.17-pmac, test again and then submit a bug?
3. Submit the bug against boot-floppies or some other package?

Just trying to do this right. My first bug report...
