By saying you needn't compile it, I take it you mean you're running a vanilla (stock) kernel-image? If that's the case, just install the new kernel image from dselect or apt-get like you would other packages. (It'll look something like kernel-image-2.2.19 or kernel-image-2.4.8-k6) If you're running a custom kernel, then there's no way around recompiling. Go with the kernel-package process like someone else has already suggested. Cheers, -- Vineet http://www.anti-dmca.org Unauthorized use of this .sig may constitute violation of US law.
