Well I believe that Kernel-package is one of the packages that you need to install a kernel source the Debian way. If you are attempting to upgrade your kernel to 2.4.9, I think that is what I have read on this thread, then do a apt-cache search kernel. This will provide you all of the kernel's that are available. If you want to install the 2.4.9-586 kernel then do a apt-get install kernel-image-2.4.9-586 and that will install it to your system. When you answer the questions at the bottom of the install and add initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.9-586 to your lilo.conf in the approperate place and the type lilo, you should be able to reboot and you will have the new kernel running, provided nothing went wrong. To check what kernel that you are running you can do a "rename -r". If as they say that you want to build (roll) your own kernel, then you need to do a apt-get install kernel-source-2.4.9. That will place kernel-source-2.4.9.etc into your /usr/src folder. Then you go from there. Don
