I forgot to write it down here, but I surely did it.  I've found many problems,
downloaded kernels from different places (.gz and .bz2), fixed myself wrong
headers (probably corrupted due to line noise and/or during source installation)
... Finally I got one error message about the compiler, so I've decided to
upgrade as much as I can.

I've downloaded (from Slink):
bin86_0.14.3-1.deb (and I already have binutils_2.9.1-0.2 installed)
cpp_2.7.2.3-7.deb (BTW, what's cpp_2.91.66-0slink1_alpha.deb from proposed
upgrades?)
gcc_2.7.2.3-7.deb
gcc-docs_2.7.2.3-7.deb
glibc-doc_2.0.7.19981211-6.deb
libc6_2.0.7.19981211-6.deb
make_3.77-4.deb
make-doc_3.77-4.deb

I hope there's nothing else missing, and not having any trouble upgrading all
that load.  I've also tried to upgrade gdb (I've got 4.17-0.1), but haven't
been able to find it.
It would be much better to upgrade to Slink at once, but I've been waiting for
more than a month for LSL to deliver the CDs.

One final question... following /usr/src/linux/README instructions, I removed
asm/, linux/, and scsi/ from /usr/include/ and remade them as symlinks to
asm-i386/, linux/, and scsi/ in /usr/src/linux/include/linux/ ... but if I now
removed the kernel source... what will it be?  orphan symlinks?  will that be a
problem?
