It's called 'kernel-source-2.6.8' not kernel-build ... just 'apt-get
install kernel-source-2.6.8'

You can use a command like 'apt-cache search kernel | sort | less' to
see all the kernel related packages available, and pick out the ones
you need to install.  Also, 'apt-cache show kernel-source-2.6.8' will
give you some information on the package before you download it.
