Re: Help. Trying to upgrade to hamm 2.0.36



 
    Tim> Where might I find the Debian 2.2.1 kernel source?

The Debian kernel-source package is at:
    ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/potato/main/binary-i386/devel/kernel-source-2.2.1_2.2.1-1.deb

I'm downloading the "deb" now..
 

Or the raw sources:
    ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.2/linux-2.2.tar.gz

If you have 'kernel-source' package, you can:

(That is the "deb" one., right?) and thanks again.  I'll give this a shot tomorrow.
    # cd <download-directory>
    # dpkg --install kernel-source-2.2.1_2.2.1-1.deb
    # rm kernel-source-2.2.1_2.2.1-1.deb
    # cd /usr/src
    # tar zxvf kernel-source-2.2.1.tar.gz
    # cd kernel-source-2.2.1
    # make xconfig

    <answer questions>

    # make-kpkg kernel_image
    # cd ..
    # dpkg --install kernel-image-2.2.1_1.00_i386.deb
