What is required for Kernel 2.2.12 ?
As you all might have guessed, I am in the process of
customizing and configuring my Debian 2.1 so that I can
dump RH.
Next step is to move up to the 2.2.x kernel. I wish to
run 2.2.12.
Can someone tell me exactly what packages I will need to
run the 2.2.x kernel ? I know that I will need some packages
from unstable but that's ok.
Here is what my /etc/apt/sources.lists looks like right
now :
# Use for a local mirror - remove the ftp1 http lines for the bits
# your mirror contains.
# deb file:/your/mirror/here/debian stable main contrib non-free
# See sources.list(5) for more information, especial
# Remember that you can only use http, ftp or file URIs
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian dists/proposed-updates/
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable non-US
deb http://www.netgod.net/ x/
I suppose I will have to add an entry for the unstable area like :
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free
BTW, on a somewhat related note what problems should I expect
when I start mixing up packages from unstable ? I am doing this
on my home system which is a standalone system. I use it for
doing some development and to browse the WWW and read this list.
Thanks.
