Re: Installing Debian using custom kernel



Thanks for this, the latest amd64 kernel 2.6.32 worked. I had actually
managed to crack this finally by making my own kernel on another machine
and copying over the simple-cdd image before the ISO was created but
this felt like a bit of a hack even though it worked and I opted for
Kmuto's images instead.
