[sorry about the long line...] $ wget ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/k/kernel-image-2.4.18-i386/kernel-image-2.4.18-686_2.4.18-5_i386.deb $ ar x kernel-image-2.4.18-686_2.4.18-5_i386.deb $ tar -xzf data.tar.gz $ cd boot $ less config-2.4.18-686 This method requires a few megs of space to use. It also results in the creation of a few subdirectories. binutils (or binutils-multiarch) and wget are required, although manual ftping can be used instead of wget. -- Seneca seneca-cunningham@rogers.com
