The last few times I redid my kernel I did it with the help of a linux kernel cd that a friend of mine lent me rather than using debian's package system. I'd like to use the package system to handle my kernel while/after I upgrade to potato. What is the most appropriate FM or section of some FM for me to read to get an idea on how to deal with kernels through the package system? Alice M. Pinard Casco Indemnity Company alice@cascoind.com
