Re: How do I "apt-get upgrade" the kernel for debian-390?



OK, I went to that link and downloaded what looks
like the right files (please tell me if I downloaded
the right ones:

ipv6-modules-2.4.19-s390-udeb_2.4.19-2_s390.udeb
kernel-image-2.4.19-s390_2.4.19-2.dsc
kernel-image-2.4.19-s390_2.4.19-2.tar.gz
kernel-image-2.4.19-s390-udeb_2.4.19-2_s390.udeb
nic-modules-2.4.19-s390-udeb_2.4.19-2_s390.udeb

It looks like I need to install three things, the
kernel-image, the ipv6- and nic-modules.

But what are these ".udeb" files?  Are these "unstable
deb's"?  I would rather install at least a testing
kernel, I'm not quite ready to be on the bleeding
edge.

Should I have downloaded the "woody-2" files at that
link instead?

Thanks again for the info, and for any further help
you can provide this debian newbie.
