Hey everyone,
I'm hoping to get a new AMD Athlon 64 processor, and I'm a little
concerned that I can't identify the proper linux-image package (planning
on using etch).
I do an "aptitude search linux-image" and look through what comes up,
but none of them look like the right one. I did a search on Debian.org
in the package lists and found something more like what I anticipated: a
package named "linux-image-2.6.18-3-amd64".
http://packages.debian.org/testing/admin/linux-image-2.6-amd64
But this doesn't show up in my search results when I use aptitude. Can
anyone help me out? I'd primarily like to know what linux-image I
should use, but I'd also appreciate it if someone could shed some light
on why my aptitude search results often differ from what I find
searching the package list on debian.org, it's happened to me many times.
Thanks,
- GM
