Just do:
apt-cache search kernel-image | less
To see what kernels are available, and:
apt-get install kernel-image-2.x.y
to install the one you want from that list. There are usually also
kernel-image.2.x packages, which will automatically upgrade to the newest .y
version as one becomes available. That seems to have fallen behind on
debian/powerpc though, so I'm not sure if it's still being developed.
Anyway, hope that helps to get you started :)
