'Linux version 2.4.18-bf2.4 (root@zombie) (gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)) #1 Son Apr 14 09:53:28 CEST 2002' I use 'dselect', there are quite a few kernels already compiled for different situations, i.e. kernel-image-2.4.18-686-smp.... Look for the smp in the name. dselect will install a new kernel & offer to: make a boot floppy & run lilo, with your permission. Debian uses the label= 'Linux' & LinuxOLD' entries in lilo.conf for kernels, this hopefull, keeps one working kernel available at all times. -- Greg C. Madden Debian GNU/Linux 3.0
