My /boot looks like this:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 256016 Jun 15 16:28 System.map-2.2.10
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 512 Jun 11 1998 boot.0307

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1009326 Jun 15 16:28 vmlinuz-2.2.10
/etc/lilo.conf:

read-only
Uses the half os' boot manager.
Since I'm still a bit green I do not know which files the kernel needs
etc. I AFAICT the *.preserved should be copied back to get to 2.0.33
but shouldn't there be a System.map.preserved and a map.preserved?
I could use a 2.0.35 from dselect but thought I could take the chance
when I have it and get some knowledge about the working of the kernel.
Any good urls, btw?
