Hi,
I know which kernel images are available. I'm asking for recommendation
for which kernel-image should I upgrade to.
Anyway, I went w/ 2.6.8-2-386 :-)
Depending on your processor, you may want to upgrade to the 2.6.8-2-686
kernel. '386' will run on 386 chips as well as Pentiums, 686 is for
pentium chips.
If you use aptitude interactively, there is a more comprehensive
description as to which kernel suits which h/w.

Hi,
I was under the impression that the latest "testing" install came w/
2.6 kernel by default. In installing i386 the kernel still shows as 2.4?
Am I missing something?
Also, which kernel-image (2.6.?) should I upgrade to?
Any insight will be appreciated.
regards,

apt-cache search kernel-image | grep "2\.6"
gives the list of 2.6 kernel packages available for a distribution. Pick
one and then do
apt-get install your_package_name
reboot and choose the appropriate kernel, then you should be all set.
