Does anyone know what is needed to upgrade this server from a 2.4 kernel to
2.6?
Currently I have Sarge installed on a couple of these machines and I'm
wanting to upgrade them to use 2.6 kernels.
I tried installing the kernel-image-2.6-686 package and when I rebooted the
machine did not come back up.
what errors did you have specifically? kernel panic? etc...

Does anyone know what I need to change besides a kernel package upgrade?
Also if the standard Debian kernels will not work what options should I
include if I get a 2.6.16 tree from kernel.org?

Thanks,
Tom
