installer with kernel 2.6.8 ?

[Philippe Froidevaux <philippe.fx@swissinfo.org>]

Hi,

I have a system with a 3ware 9000 raid card and without a (working) 
floppy disc. To install it I need the latest kernel, i.e. 2.6.8.1, 
because it has the 3w-9xxx drivers in it. It didn't work with the daily 
Sarge installer ISO image (the driver exists but is unusable, as many 
people reported in this lists).

how can I build a 2.6.8 ISO image myself, or where can I download it ?

I found some informations here : 
http://wiki.debian.net/index.cgi?DebianInstallerBuild and 
http://wiki.debian.net/index.cgi?DebianInstallerModify, but it doesn't 
work. Maybe not enought explanations for dummies.

could you help here ?


thanks,
Philippe.

PS: I'm not in the list, please Cc: to me.
