Sure, no problem. Running a standard Slink, with 2.2.14
kernel. The new kernels are really good! It actually gave me
slightly more speed on my previous machine, a 486/100.
Compiling a kernel is not that hard, and it gives you a
faster boot, and a faster machine, since you can tailor the
kernel to your needs.
Checkout the kernel-howto at Debian.org for more info.
