Hi,
install Package: doc-linux (perhaps only temporarily).
fetch a cup of coffee and read
$ zless /usr/doc/HOWTO/Firewall-HOWTO.gz
for compiling a kernel install Package: kernel-package (it will make
your life easier).
try following recipe:
1) install a kernel-source package
2) cd /usr/src/linux
3) make xconfig OR make menuconfig OR make config
4) make-kpkg clean
5) make-kpkg -r=custom.1.0 kernel_image
6) dpkg -i ../kernel*.deb
then reboot and test.
Greetings,
Christian

What's the railroad to me ?
I never go to see
Where it ends.
It fills a few hollows,
And makes banks for the swallows,
It sets the sand a-blowing,
And the blackberries a-growing.
(Henry David Thoreau)
