~~~~~~~~~~~~~ That is exactly my question. How to choose the 2.6 kernel as my install kernel version? Current available Debian install cds seem just have 2.4 kernel or earlier version.


if you are using the sarge install disc, you can install using the 2.6
kernel.

when you get to the boot prompt for the installer, instead of just
hitting enter, you could type "linux26" to procede with a 2.6 kernel
install.

hitting the f? keys (where ? = 1-6) at the boot prompt gives you more
options and information about what the install is doing.

Ok, that solve the problem of kernel version. How about the boot program? Once i use 2.4 kernel to install the system, i find i can only choose "lilo" to be my boot program. I'd prefer "grub". Is it supported when installation?

Thank you
